Today is the day we say goodbye and I am not ready. I can’t imagine a day seeing the family and Rick being the first one to reach out with the best hug. Rick was one of the good ones. He will be missed. RIP Dear Rick.

Ricky and the family were my next door neighbors when we were kids. We spent many a day playing ball and riding bikes. Oh, how time passes so swiftly but the memories still remain. My condolences to the family.

It's so hard to write here because I'm not accepting the reality. I'm still in denial that I will never see hi m again or hear his infectious laugh. We talked and laughed about his continuous work on his house, his kitchen, his floors...he was so proud and wanted me to see his work, and we were planning that visit. I'm so happy we had such a great time in Key West, FL, even tho he got stuck in traffic, he was always so positive about it. I will never ever in my whole life miss anyone as much as I do Rick. Love you so much to the moon and back..

Haven’t seen him in a long time. Love my cousins very much.
My heart breaks for his son, sisters and brother.
I do know he was a good man and loved by many. Rest in peace with your mom and dad now…..â¤ï¸ðŸ¥°

Rick was a super guy , he was his brother Bills shadow , I can still see him walking across the backyard going to Bills shop , he was always batting our dogs off like flies , arms swinging telling them to get down. But he loved them , I don’t know who enjoyed that game best , Rick or the pups . . Going to air shows was another favorite , now he’s flying high with the angels , he has greater wings than any of the planes we saw. Rick was loved and will be missed Cheryl
