Rick,
You are extremely missed. Thank you for all you did for me and for my mother. I know you made her very happy and was always there for her. Thank you for all the great dinners you made. You were so very talented at music… and it was appreciated by so many people. I am so glad we all got to go St. Louis this year and spend time together. I truly believe you are in heaven, playing with Hendrix and eating some “Mr. Johnson’s BBQ” you always would speak of and I will miss hearing you say, haha.
Love,
Kevin

I will always wonder at the musical skill you shared with us on the guitar. And your kindness always showed through. God Bless you and your family. You will be missed.
Gather the children of Heaven together and play for them, then teach them the beauty of learning themselves. Rest in peace. Your journey here is done.
