Florence, I am saddened by Rick´s passing. Rick was a great man. He will always be remembered by the countless families and individuals that he helped. The number of dogs and puppies that he tirelessly saved and worked so hard for. Rick is a champion of caring for those he nursed back to health. There are two men in Hall County that are true legends for their care and compassion for the lost ,sick and unwanted pets. Rick Aiken and Dr. John Sundstrom . Both true heroes. I will always remember....
