I remember her joy and cheerfulness. She was very kind to me when my father died in 1996 and we had dinner and went to the symphony together on different occasions. She suffered so with her back, but never let it stop her enthusiasm. I am sad to hear of her death, but glad she is with her husband and no longer will suffer.

Hello, I was a long time patient and employee of Dr.Sudholt and was well aware of the kind and gentle person that Rickey was. I am sorry to hear of her passing. Though she will be in a beautiful place with Doc and John, it is still a huge loss to her family. May she rest in peace.
