Not sure what to say?

We just read in the paper about Ricky's passing. Lorraine and Ricky, we are so sorry for your loss, for the world's loss. Our son, Chris (Shotgun) played ball for Ricky on the Rex Tigers when our kids were growing up. My husband, Mike, helped Ricky coach the team. Ricky was the coach that other coaches loved to hate. They did so because of the relationship Ricky had with the kids. He was a champion for the kids. He believed in them and gave them guidance not only in sport but in life. ...
