Marcia, Tiffany, Ricky and Mark: Our thoughts are with all of you at this difficult time. We were shocked to see the news. Rick was a great husband, father and neighbor. We will miss waving and seeing him come and go. This certainly doesn't compare to your loss. Hoping wonderful memories will replace the sadness as time goes by.
Sincerely, the Kalinays
