    I am so sorry for your loss. Although, I do not know your family personally, I would like to share some encouraging thoughts from the Bible. The Bible provides comfort during these difficult times. Revelation 21:3-4 states, And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away. Very soon now, we will never experience losing our loved ones in death and we will be able to see them again once they resurrected as per John 5:28-29. May these words give you a new hope.

    Although I lost touch with Ricky over the years, he was someone I will always remember with fondness. Great athlete and someone that always had that twinkle in his eye. Ironically, I dropped my daughter off for her first day of middle school this morning at Noble. That is where Ricky and I met on the playground 37 years ago this week.

    I will always remember Ricky, our conversations about cars, and especially that bright red Camaro he used to drive to school every day. RIP Ricky.
