Richard "Ric" Fontenot

Ric was an awesome person whose personality lit up a room. We were friends for many years and I'll miss the frequent conversations we had about golf, life and the lumber business. He loved Tonja, his Cowboys and lived his life with a smile on his face. He will be greatly missed.

To the family of Ric, I am in complete shock in finding out the passing of this wonderful man. He was my English teacher at Pearl Watson and a great one at that. I am so very sorry for your great loss. My thoughts and prayers will be with his family at this most difficult time.

Tonja I am sorry about your loss, God will give you all the strength you and your family need. Sincerely

Loved competing with Ric on the golf course. Had some great times, will miss him greatly. My sincere condolences and may God bless you and your family in the days to come.

Tonja, there are no words as to how broken-hearted I am for you. Your and Ric’s love radiated from you both. If I described your marriage in one word, it would be fun. Y’all always seemed to be having fun and loved every moment together. May that give you strength in the days to come. Love and hugs always. Prayers for you and all who loved Ric.

Tonya, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Ric was a wonderful guy who was always so much fun to be around and I know he will be missed terribly.
