My heart aches for all of you today. Steve and I were so sorry to hear that George had passed.
The death of a loved one can bring us to our knees
reeling from pain, sorrow, and regret. Just remember the love, memories, and all the good times
you shared as a family. You will see him again.
Take comfort in your beliefs. Sending you love and prayers from all the Ricker family. Thank you for always making us feel a part of your wonderful
Family. Love, Kisses, and hugs!

In this sad world of ours, sorrow comes to all. It can come often with bitter agony. Perfect relief is not possible-except with time. As of now you can't believe that you will ever feel better.
But, this is not true.
You are sure to be happy again.
Knowing this, and truly believing it, will make you less miserable now.
Because...
As we speak-George is watching from heavan.
This will become a comfort to us all.
