Rosalie and family, our sincere sympathy to you all. Ray guided us through the process in small claims court several times which resulted in favorable conclusions. Small claims court has not been the same since he left; he was the best.

I would like to wish my deepest sympathy to the Ricci family. I had the pleasure to work with Judge Ricci for almost 10 years. He was someone that everyone went to when a question came up about the law or civil procedure. He will be missed.
