Dear Dienna, Bruce, Sis, Joe Sr., and other family members of Ric. It is always a sad occassion when we have to say goodbye to a loved one, especially when one was in the prime of his life, but as it has been said many times before me, Ric is now with his Master and is waiting for us to join him. We wish we could find words to express our sorrow and our love for you as you go on day to day. The hurt will eventually heal, but the memories will live on forever. Never will be forgotten the August 2007 cruise where the family joined together to bond with little known relatives and close ones. Our last image of Ric is seeing him having a good time with the ones he loves. God is with him, and God be with you also. All our love.

Dieanna,
We are so very sorry for your loss, and there are no words anyone can say to heal your heart. Ric was blessed to have a Mom like you.
Take care. Jack and Marsha

Words can never express the sadness we feel on your personal loss.
Though Richard was a young man it does sound like he lived it fully and that he touched every life he came in contact with and that should make you so very proud.
I am sure he is in loving gentle hands now and that though he may be gone physically as long as you keep him in your hearts he will forever be with you.
Cher and I send our love and prayers to you and all the family.

Dienna, I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. It sounds like your son blessed this world with some wonderful memories. Live with them...let them carry you through this trying time. I'll pray your empty heart fills with pride and eases your pain. Take care dear.

Though it has been a few months since I have had contact with Ric, he has made a lasting impression on my life and has changed me in so many ways. He was the most caring, spiritual, and funny people I have had the joy to come in contact with. There is rarely a day that goes by without me being reminded of him. Whether its putting on my DCs and cleaning off every little mark, because according to Ric, Heaven forbid shoes look dirty, or whether its sitting down and watching Vanilla Sky or Zoolander. He took the greatest pride in his work and prided himself even more in his friendships. His family meant the world to him. I know this because they are all he ever talked about! He always bragged that he had the most adorable niece. He taught me the value of myself and gave me confidence that I, and every one, deserve the best in life. He lived life to the fullest and has spread that mentality to many. His laugh and smile were infectious and I am heartbroken by the world's loss. I can only imagine the joy he is spreading in Heaven. My sympathies to Ric's friends and family.

Dearest Dienna, Family and Friends.
I recently got to see and visit with Ric while on a family cruise my sister Mary Ann laborsly put together for our whole family..He wasn't that fisty, braty little boy of 5 or 6 yrs of age when I lived in Orange County and visited him and Dienna's family..(smile~~~He grew up made something of himself...He grew up to be a man who loved his country, had many friends and could make friends easily as well..I'll always remember you as a charming young man. My God be with you and watch over you Richard.......
Great Uncle Paul

Ric, Our friendship was cut much too short but the glimps that I was given will provide me with a lifetime of great memories. You moved people in powerful ways through your infectuous leadership and caring heart. Although your incredible potential on this planet was abbreviated, you have already touched more people in a positive way than you probably ever realized.
I wish that we had been given more time.

We knew Ric only through stories told by his grandmother, Mary Ann, and his Auntie Lori. Our heart goes out to them and his entire family. We are all poorer for his absence.

My dear handsome Nephew Richard. We are all trying to deal with this awful tragedy. The only thing that is getting us all through it besides God, is your sense of humor. You always made us laugh when you were with us, and we will continue to laugh at your silly antics for many years to come. Thank you for gracing us with your love, and humor in your short 24 years of life. You will be truly missed and you are very much loved by everyone. In your death we are learning about all the lives you have touched and influenced and it gives us that much more to be proud of you for. Heaven is full of more laughter now that you're there! I love you and you will forever be in my heart.
Until we meet again in heaven,
Auntie
