Rick Sutherland

I can't believe you have been gone three years! I forget you are gone then I go to check and see what you and family are up to, then remember you have left this life! Your memory will live on in those that love you and the business's that you built will remind all what a great entrepreneur you were! R. 8. P. !

Two years have passed since you left this life, I hope and pray your family is doing well. You really made your mark on this world! You were an inspiration to those you met! Rest easy!

Rick, we will miss you. You were tremendously inspiring and fun to be with. Turn heaven into an entrepreneurial heaven.

I can still feel his presence. Wouldn't miss his celebration
