Uncle Ric- You are an amazing person that lived life to the fullest. You forever left your "mark" in my heart. You taught me to be free, passionate about the things I love, respect others but not let their judgements mold or shape me to be the person they want me to be. Just Be ME! I admired that about you- your eccentric personality, your passion with your hobbies, your passion teaching children, your respect for yourself, your witty sense of humor, you always new how to capture a room. I am very blessed to have the Childhood memories that I do, you helped make them. Every Sunday we always had Family dinners either at my parents or Grandma & Grandpa's. It was just us (my brothers Myke & Chris, my Mom & Dad, Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt Donna, Aunt Debbie and Uncle Ric), All our Christmas's together whether they were in West Covina, La Verne or in Lake Arrowhead, the numerous adventures that we were able to explore- Caribbean Islands, Hawaiian Islands, Australia, Canada. Going to your house in Indio and Banning- sharing and listening to music, learning Historical facts. I always new you were going to be a Great Dad because you are a Great Uncle to my brothers and I. I have a ton of memories that I will cherish forever! I just want to thank you for them. I love you with all my heart, please give Grandma a kiss for me as I know you are rejoicing in each others arms ( you earned your wings). I hope you know I am very Proud to be your Niece. Until we meet again soar high in the sky my sweet angel.
