Not sure what to say?

As I said last year, "the best of the best"! Such a sweetheart he was!! Love never dies.

I met Rico in high school, there was a group of us that hung out. Graduation and life happened, and I didn't see him for some years. When we did hook up again, he was the same lovable, happy, well-meaning person I knew. He loved to have fun and was very good at it. Too many memories to list, however, I was with him the day he gave his life to Jesus and asked Him to be his Savior, for that I am profoundly grateful because I know Rico is definitely in Heaven and he is healed from that monstrous...

Fran and Mike, So very sorry for the loss of your brother! Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family! Big hugs, Matt and Annie Schmieder

Dear Fran and Mike, My sincere condolences on the passing of Rick. He is now brightening Heaven, reunited with your mom, dad and brother. Please cherish the memories. With Deepest Sympathy,

Deb, Tom, Fran & Mike, Sincere condolences on the passing of Rick. Reunited with your mom, dad and brother. I know he is living it up in Heaven. May he rest in peace!

Fran and Mike, I knew Rick as a kid when we rode mini-bikes in St. Thomas's Church parking lot. He had a Bonanza mini-bike, it was blue. I still love mini-bikes and motorcycles. I know the loss of a sibling as I have lost my share. I know they have left these physical bodies for their next spiritual soul experience. As you know, he is in God's hands. Best regards, Paul Dinkel

My sympathies to the family. We will remember Rick at our Class Rosary this evening.

A truly kind, loving, gentle, fun-loving soul. A great friend. The best of the best.
