I hope you rest in peace Rick. We had a long strange relationship since we were kids and then ended up married for over 7 years. I think we drove mom nuts... you were and always will be in my heart. I have felt part of your family since I was 13 years old. I hope you are with your family already in heaven and smiling about the good times. Also I hope you have surrounding you Rufus, Bubbu, Little Bear,Max and Mr. Bill who you cared for so much. I just wish I could have told you goodbye and seen your face one more time. I will hold onto memories and photos and gripe at you now and then for old times sake.
