Dick Borrud


Camp director, once children’s television star, pilot, adventurer, pastor, educator, story teller, dreamer, twice struck by lightening… and at age 74 a strong bodied and willed that is hard to keep up with on a mountain side hike

Dick shared his 25 goals that he wants to do before he dies. Every year some are accomplished and new one’s are added. “The day before I die I will have in my pocket 25 things I planed on doing.”

How to live 100 years happily

2. Keep usefully at work and ministry
3. Purse your hobbies
4. Learn to be satisfied
5. Keep on liking and affirming pople
6. Meet adversity valiantly
7. Meet the little problems of life with decision
8. Maintain a good sense of humor… best don by saying something pleasant every time you get a chance.
9. Live and make the present hour pleasant and cheerful. Keep your mind out of the past and keep it out of the future.
