We are very sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. We know from personal experience how devastating and painful the death of a child is. We pray that you can get consolation from The Holy Scriptures which contain words of comfort and hope. One of the Psalms reads: "Jehovah (Yahweh) is close to the broken-hearted, he saves those crushed in spirit". May the God of all comfort, soothe your hearts with his loving care.
Sincerely
Maggie C

I want his friends and family to know that Ricky stepped up and looked out for me during a bad time. I didn't talk to anyone. I didn't want anyone to notice, but Ricky did, and without a second thought personally went to set things right. I knew Ricky just long enough to know that that was the kind of guy he was.

I love you, man. We all do. A small comfort is that, on some level, I think he knew that.

I was lucky enough to spend eight months on and off with Ricky as my significant other. I nursed him when he had shoulder surgery and was able to be the person he needed for support. I have so many memories with Ricky that I will never forget. I am thankful that for a time, he loved me. He always made me laugh, always being silly. My family loved him. He will be missed truly but I hope we celebrate him! God bless his family, thinking of you.

My heart is broken! I watched Ricky grow up with my son and his two other best friends...seems like just a year ago they were kids. They traded-in their bikes and skateboards for high school diplomas and girls and jobs. Ricky took the road of "the few" and made ALL of us so incredibly PROUD! My deepest and most sincerest condolences to his parents...I will keep you in my prayers and Ricky in my heart ALWAYS.
