Mr.Rick was always somebody that Id be happy to see as I was walking the halls. I could be in the worst mood ever and hed tell a couple of jokes that would always make me laugh so hard. Lol hed always look out when you needed a snack or something to drink out of the teachers lounge. Its going to feel so strange not seeing you at school anymore. Your memory will definitely live on. Youll be truly missed.
