I am deeply saddened to learn of the loss of your mother and grandmother. Susan was a lovely and kind woman. Her parents (Louie and Ruth) were my Godparents, and I was also blessed to be distantly related to her. May comfort your grieving hearts and hold you close during this time of loss. Deepest Sympathy to your entire family!

My deepest sympathies to the entire Ricker family. I got to know Mrs. Ricker as she worked with my mom at LCC. She was always very pleasant and had a great smile and/or kind word for me when I popped in the office.
