My deepest and sincere condolences to the Caballero Family. I don't know if this is the same Ricky I knew back in Junior High (Harris) and High School (Burbank). I was going through this list looking for someone and came across this person who sounded so familiar. May God Bless you and yours through this difficult time.

Diane,
It's hard to find the right words to say at a time like this. My deepest sympathy goes out to you and your family. May you cherish all the wonderful memories that you have together. Rick will be missed but never forgotten. If you ever need someone to talk to, I'm just a phone call away. In time you will be ok. Stay strong, you know Rick wouldn't want it any other way.
Your cousin Sandy & Family
