Not sure what to say?

Its going to be 7 years next week and not a minute goes by where I don't think of you. I miss you so much and I know you are probably watching over us. You were the best and I will never forget you. Love you Ricky!

A pound the anniversary of the death of Ricky Smart, it doesn't seem that a year has gone by already. I still go to Beth's house my sister to look @ her front door thinking Ricky is going to walk through any minute. Ricky, you have been in my thoughts everyday since this happened, and you will continue to be with me in spirit, also,in my memories. Hope that you are in peace Ricky. Until we meet again, but this time it will be heaven.
All my love, Aunt Kathy

Ricky,
You grew up next door to me and you taught me mostly everything I know today. I would never be the person I am today with out you, You made everyone's life alot easier and a whole lot happier when you were here. For all of us who knew you we are incredibly blesssed. You are my best friend and always will be. I love you so much more than I can ever elaborate in words. Once I was afraid of life after death and now I look forward to it. Hang out with my mom okay, I sure in hell know...

Beth I am praying for the Lord to give you and all the lives touched by your son the strength to carry on. It is so difficult to carry on when you lose a loved one but the Lord will take care of you. May you find joy and peace in knowing so many people care about you.
Love You and Miss You.
Debra - You silly woman (remember that saying)

Ricky touched my life in a number of ways. He was quiet, yet friendly. He was bold yet humble. He had a strong physique yet a tender heart. He had no qualms about showing love to his family. He's the first person I remember speaking to when I first came to Chicago, he was younger then. He has affected my life even though I live in the UK. My wife Lorraine is stunned, I'm shocked. We are both very sad. Our love goes out to Rick, Beth, Lindsey and Emma, also to Katy and Patricia and...

Ricky was was always there, when ever someone needed him. He was like the son, I never had. He brought great joy to me and my daughter Alyssa. I remember, I use to babysit him for Beth, he was full of life as a little guy and as an adult. I will remember his smile and laughter. This loss will be a very difficult to over come.I will miss you terribly. I know he is with God, and that does bring some comfort. Ricky you will always be in my thoughts, and I will visit your resting place every...

Ricky was always a very sweet and easy person to talk to whenever we saw each other. I am so glad that I had the pleasure of meeting him and growing up with him around. He was a great guy and will be deeply missed. I am so sorry to hear about what happened and I will never forget him. I am thinking about you guys.
Love,
