Dick was born September 9, 1917, in Pierce County, Nebraska, to Richard and Augusta Sellin. He was united in marriage to Betty Rohde on April 30, 1944, in Carroll, Nebraska. Five children were born to this marriage; Gordon, Rick, Judy, Pat, & Jan, each child was born in a different town because Dick’s construction jobs took him all over. At age 10, he lost his father to pneumonia. He quit school after the 8th grade to help his mother work their rented farm and support his brother and sisters. During the early years of their marriage, Dick and Betty traveled to various construction sites, living in a 20 foot trailer. During this time four of their five children were born. The family moved to Lexington in 1954, at which time Dick began working for Henry Kugler. In 1964 he began working construction for Joel German. A few years later he began working for Harlan and Kerry Anderson. After retiring in 1982, he worked part time for Andersons, receiving the Dawson County Ag Employee of the year at the age of 85. After giving up farming, he remained active by driving cars for Platte Valley Auto. Dick was a member of the Trinity Lutheran Church in Lexington. He was a 4-H leader for over sixteen years while his five children were active in 4-H. In later years, he loved working out and spending time at the gym with his many friends. Dick was able to remain in his home in his later years thanks to Gordon, Jan and Judy and loving caregivers Olga Shevtsov and Kim Benson.
