Dearest Mary Jane & Family,
I am unable to describe in words how we felt when we learned that "Little Henry" had fallen ill and then had passed so suddenly. When God comes for you, he indeed says that you will not know the time, place or the reason for which he hath come for you but yet that person in which he has come for will so gladly take his hand and leave this life to go to where he's always imagined and to accompany his Loved ones that he has also had to grieve in the past. I...

Mary Jane, our love and prayers are with you, Kenneth and Clayton. May God manifest His presence and strength to each of you in a mighty way. Rick had an ability to make a person feel good about themselves, and he was one of the most thoughtful people I have ever known.

Sharon and the rest of us still talk about that act of love...

Our prayers and thoughts are with you Aunt Mary Jane, Clay, Kenneth and your families. We will miss uncle shotgun. He was truly one of a kind, a man who loved life, to laugh and most of all his family. I will never forget that great sense of humor and the joy he had just telling a story.
He will be missed but certainly never forgotten. We were all blessed to have had him in our lives.

Mary Jane and Family,
May the LORD hold you in his arms during these difficult days. Rick was a true friend to many and will be missed by us all. When problems developed while building Carrollton Nike Park, Rick always came up with the right solution.

We will never forget Uncle Shotgun, and his generousity towards us when we went to Virginia. When we heard the sad news, the first thing we thought of is not that he died, but that he finally "retired."

Henry, Mary Jane, and his Cadillac were regulars at our local car shows and cruise ins. Always quick with a bright smile and helping hand ... he will be missed.
