Ricky Deano Burks, You are gone for one year, Never Forgotten.... I'll try not to grieve for you, for now You are free of pain. You are following the path God made for You. You went from our hands to His when You heard Him call. You turned your back and left Us all. You could not stay another day. not even to say goodby. Your parting has left a void,I'll try and fill it with all the remembered joys.Your time seemed all too brief, I'll try not to lenghten it with undo Grief. God wanted You now......He set You free.

For My two Special Sons Ricky Deano & Donnie Carl Burks . We should always treasure the people We Love while We're lucky enough to still have them around. I chose to spend Christmas Eve thru the first of the New year alone, I had a Private Tribute for the two of You. At times the pain is almost more than I can bear.
