This is not easy. I will stand on God´s powerful word. There´s nothing too hard for God. There´s no sorrow heaven cannot heal. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanish. Rick is now absent from the body and present with the Lord.
Love Always #2 and #3 forever.

To the Entire Magee & The Kuji Center family & friends

Another hurt so deeply, Ricky was always nice, respectful, creative, a man of God I can go on and on

Back in the Kuji center days, he showed love and support for those children.

Ricky will never be forgotten, may his precious memories keep each of you in good health, safe, filled with laughter.
Keep holding on to God's unchanging hands, daily.
