Ricky was one of the nicest guys you will meet. We have been customer's of Ricky's for many years. Everyone that knew him here was deeply saddened by the loss. He often spoke of his family and had many funny stories to tell. He loved to talk about his sport memorabilia. He was quite the collector! He will be deeply missed!

Rick was not only a family friend he was like my uncle. It was never a dull moment when he was around and everytime he visited our house it was like Christmas. I will miss all of our crazy inside jokes. I just wish we could still be in the car taking our family road trip to Florida. I will miss you uncle Ricky so much and I know I've got a great angel watching over me
