Rico, I can't believe you're gone! I'll always remember you as the loving and sincere person that you were, we had alot of good times together and shared much laughter.... Just to know that I'll never get to see you smile again is painful. My heart goes out to your family, and although I'm deeply saddened I'm very grateful that I got to know you. I'm also very thankful to the lord for allowing you to be here with us for as long as he did... Rest in paradise my beloved friend, much love and respect :(
