I met Rick in 2006 when I first brought my car into Bridges. Rick was the person who helped me get my car to look exactly how I wanted, slammed to the ground, he was so great and helpful in making me a happy customer. Furthermore, he was always so kind and soft spoken, not to mention attentive and kind hearted.
I was saddened when I went into Bridges yesterday only to learn that Rick had passed away, may he rest in peace for he was a great individual, honest, sincere and oh so friendly. My condolences go out to his family and friends, for he was such a pleasant person.
I had the opportunity of speaking with Mark of the good times he and Rick had with the company, and I also learned that he and Mark were buddies for 30 years. With that said, I cannot imagine how he and the rest of the staff at Bridges must feel right about now, his family and friends inclusively. 
I was more than satisfied with the way Rick slammed my car, will always remember him when I look at my car, and never forget him. Although I barely knew you Rick, thanks for all you did and I know you are in a better place. R.I.P buddy, Bridges finest lost.

Whoever met Rick and became his friend always knew what a marvelous gift he was given. We give thanks for the life of a man that has passed our way. For us the universe without Rick will never be the same.
Much more than a cousin, he became and was... my friend.
You have departed this earthly life, but not our hearts and memories.
Godspeed Rick.

Gloria, so sorry for your loss, and you have our heartfelt condolences from the Ramirez family.  We spent Thursday night looking at old pictures, and laughing about the great times we had. There's no replacing that smile of Mr. Ricks, and I'm waiting for the 'Simoney Simoney Baloney' to come.  
Love,
Simon, Jessica, Sabrina and Caden Ramirez

I just got back from the memorial, and wanted to send my love and support to Gloria and family.
I was so moved by all of the people that attended, and the tributes that were shared about Mr. Rick, Ricky D, or just Ricky.
I had the honor of knowing Ricky since he was in Jr. HS.  Unfortunately, time passed, and our lives moved in different directions and we didn't see each other much after HS.
Today, he brought all of us together to celebrate his life and remember the love that we shared, and will continue to share going forward.  He will always be in our hearts, because he is a part of each and every one of us.
I missed a large part of your life Ricky.  However, after today, I can see that you lived it to the fullest.
We will miss you.
Sleep with angels,
xoxoxoxo,

There are no words that can heal the sorrow that you're all going through at this time. However, just know that Rick is up there in heaven with grandma Eleanor and brother Ed looking down over each and every one of you. The Lord has received another Angel! Gloria and Sandy I'm thinking of both of you and the family!

I am so shocked and saddened to here about this. A young life cut short is a so unfair and painful. I have fond memories of him going back to my high school days. I know he will be truly missed by his beloved family, which was many. May his spirit rise before Christ!
