Not sure what to say?

I was so sorry and shocked to learn of Rick's death. I was one of his many customers, though I also considered him one of my friends. As each of his many plantings around my home start to grow and flower this year, and for each succeeding year, I will fondly remember Rick and his "joy of life" spirit.

Judy and Andrea,
Brenda and I were shocked when we received word of Rick's death. You know that our hearts go out to both of you and that we are deeply disappointed to miss Rick's memorial service. Words can not convey how we feel about your loss.
Love,
John and Brenda

Psalm 90:10 says that the days of our years are 70 years, And if because of special mightiness they are 80 years.
May the memories of the wonderful times you shared together bring a smile and joy in your heart.

Sincere sympathies to family & friends of Richard. I served on a committee for Union Memorial Park with Richard. He was very knowledgeable and committed to sharing his expertise with the committee & assisting with designing a beautiful garden at Union Memorial park ( site of the prior Auto Lite plant.) RIP Richard.

I was Richard's teacher for his landscape classes at Owens C.C.. I always knew that he was a 'good guy' but never knew what an interesting background he had. And, how much he helped others. The 'Italian Gardener' will be missed.

Dear Cozza Family,
I am deeply saddened by the loss of our dear Rick. I will miss seeing him around Epiphany. He was an excellent Bible study leader and pillar of our church community. I enjoyed fellowship time at dinners and events. Things won't be the same. Sending prayers of comfort and peace to you all.
Love, Talia
