Rest in Peace Ricky. My prayer are with your family. I have a lot good memories of you, When I use to come your house many years ago, And how your dad laugh at my me because I had toe socks on You will always be in my heart and I will never forget you. Nelwynn Kay Willey Mauriceville,Texas

I had the pleasure of knowing Ricky, and of observing his work first hand as he did a great job painting my house. A gentleman of the first order, and of a fine family. It is sad to see old friends go, but my memories of Ricky are good ones. May such memories sustain the family in this time of their loss.
