H.L. (Dick) Kreeger Dick served in the U.S. Army during World War II and graduated from the University of Iowa with a degree in accounting. He spent his entire career with Caterpillar, working in Aurora, Joliet, Illinois, and two years in Gosselies, Belgium as Cost Accounting Manager, returning to General Offices in Peoria. In 1985, he found Seven Lakes. One of the first things that he discovered was that membership in the 18 Hole Men ’ s Group was closed. Maxed out at 300 members. He waited five months for an opening. In late 1987, the Tee Room began serving dinner once a week. The “ chef ” cooked everything at home and brought it in. He met his wife, Muriel, at one of those dinners. They were married several years later.
He worked as a “ Starter, ” served as Condo Rep numerous times, a Board Member for seven years, and worked with Charlie Kirin at the time of the document revision. His pet peeve was lack of rules enforcement. He was a proponent of the, “ if you are not going to enforce the rule, then get rid of it. ” He and Muriel enjoyed the social life here, taking dancing lessons, playing in Scrambles, summer golfing excursions, cruises and numerous lengthy trips out west. Golf course renovations, not being able to drive on the course initially, and Covid took their toll. Dick passed on March 3 at Hope Hospice just two months shy of his 98th birthday. He is survived by his wife, 2 sons, 4 grandchildren and 8 great grandchildren.
