We just saw this and are very saddened by this. Ricky introduced Craig and I. and we just celebrated our 20th anniversary. We lost touch, and tried to locate him a few times, even sending facebook messages to Claudia or Annemarie, but to no avail. I was trying to locate him again, and saw the obituary. We loved Ricky and send our deepest condolences to his family. Would appreciate any info, as we are not sure what happened. Again, we a really sorry. Many good memories. Bruce, if you remember us from Connie's please send us a note at [email protected].

So very sorry to hear about Ricky. I've known him since my childhood. God just got another angel in heaven. The SarlosCulotta's go back a long way....Too young, far too young but know that he is in God's hands now and with his family before him and he's left behind a wonderful legacr Melrose Park, IL
