Richard W. Thomas

Just heard of Ricky's passing and the grief will be never-ending. His love and pride for daughter shannon was bottomless. I'll never forget the day we found out we were. Cousins by marriage or the nights we'd stay up watching horror shows. Oh Ricky the endless pots of coffee and you helping me stay sober when my son died. Love to you and I pray for the day I join you.

With eternal love

I had not seen him around in a while I had no idea he had been sick...

Ohh. So sad. You will be missed Rick. Elaine.

RIP Ricky, so glad i stopped the day before it must have been Gods plan for us two old friends to see each other one more time. You will be missed by me and others. Ride proud with the Angels my friend.

Hi, Im Ricky, Im a sicky" is how my friend Ricky Thomas would identify himself at the podium in AA. We did a lot of partying together back in the day. I wondered where Rick went, I hadn't seen him in a few years when I was still partying. In the summer of 94 I found myself in Danvers Detox. Thats when I found out where my friend Ricky Thomas was. He came into the detox to put on a commitment and blew my mind. He said he had been sober for 4 yrs and if I wanted what he had, I had to do what he...

My heart goes out to you, Amy. Be strong, he will forever be in your heart. My prayers are for both of you. May Ricky rest in peace now
