Ricky, my big brother its been 13 years since you left us, Ricky this is the hardest thing I've ever dealt with, it hit me so hard, I miss you every single day nothing has been the same, I didn't realize how much I depended on you or how your where the rock that held our family together, mom even said so, I feel so alone without you here, you always knew when I really needed you to be my brother my protector without words and I thank you for that, I love and miss you so much Ricky, love your Sis Sonya with the biggest hug to reach you in heaven.

We all Love and miss you Uncle Ricky Always!

I can't believe that you are gone. When we got the call I was in shock and honestly still am. You were such a great guy and one thing I know is that you loved your family very much. I can remember our last conversation on the phone you told me how much you loved me. I will always love you and will cherish the memories that I have of our childhood. There is nothing like family and when one of them is gone there is always an emptiness that only time can heal.
God bless you my sweet cousin.

I had the pleasure of meeting Ricky over 23 years ago. During those years we have shared good times and bad. Happy times and sad. We have laughed together, cried together. faced our fears and mourned the loss of people we have both loved. Now my dear Brother in law the time has come for me to say farewell to you. All though I didn't get the chance to see you very often please know that I will forever hold you dear in my heart. To each and every one of you who's life Ricky had touched, please take comfort in knowing that you will meet him again at the gates of Heaven with his arms opened wide waiting to hold you close to him once more. Be strong and carry on knowing that he is watching over you and that everything that he was had everything to do with everyone of you. Until we met again my friend rest in peace...

In memory:I recall a time I went to Tonia & Rickys house when they lived on Floyed Ricky is sitting on the couch watching football,I see all the kids running out from the back room play'in have'in fun! in & out The thing is, I ask Tonia dosen't Ricky get mad when the kids are running back and forth in front of the T.V.? She said..No, he dosen't care. Now how about that for a dad! Another time I went down to see them in Sonora and we all went roller skating. Ricky, Tonia and I sat and watched the kids for awhile..Then we got to remembering when we were kids roller skating so we decided to get our skates on and give it a try, We knew we were going to all fall on our butts and we did after one go round we went back to our seats and watched the kids. laughing at ourself's of course the kids got a bang out of it to. Ricky you never seem to amaze me with your Tenderness, Calmness, Gentleness and Laughter you will truly be miss and never forgotten thats for sure may you rest in peace and give Big Hugs & Kisses to Cameron. We'll be seeing you until then watch over us all.
