Ricky and I worked together at Methodist Hospital in Jacksonville, we often teased about his basketball days at Raines when he played against my brother Roland Rucker. He was a joy to work with and a very fine young man.
God Bless

I was heart broken to hear about Ricks death Monday. He was one of the nicest people I have ever met. I was one of Ricks customers for over 10 years. My heart goes out to his family. May God wrap his arms around each of you and comfort you during this very difficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
