We miss Ricky's ready smile and his wonderful sense of humor. We have so many fun memories of our mini "reunions, class of 61" at his amazing home in Castine, ME. He was one of the most generous persons we have known. He will keep them laughing in heaven.

Ricky and I were friends from the 1st grade to the 12th grade at NAHS, where he was voted "Most likely to succeed". He certainly did. Condolences to you all. He did you proud!
