To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome...

I am shocked and saddend to learn of Rick's passing. I hadn't seen him in a number of years, since I moved away from New Orleans. But, I have fond memories of his smile and kindness during the days he and Jim Wolfe worked at Phidipides. May he enjoy peace and happiness in heaven. My prayers are with his family and so many friends.

Kathy, you and Kyle will always be in my prayers. I will miss my friend and the times we had coaching together. It was great to see that smile on his face and enjoy the laughs we had.

Mrs Elmore,
I am very sad to hear of Rick's passing. I met Rick when I got into running back in 1983 and he was working at Phidippides in Metairie.

Dear Mrs. Elmore,

I was very sad to learn that Rick passed away. I want to express my deepest sympathy to you and your son.

I knew Rick from the road races. He was such a kind and giving person. He was always willing to offer assistance to any of the runners who needed it and often gave encouragement to many of us.

I will always remember Rick with fondness.

I have you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

Sincerely,

Kathy, I am so sorry for your loss. I will keep you and Kyle in my prayers. Susie Lopez
