Prayers for for family Ric was a wonderful friend.
Praying for you all in this time and the weeks to come. Ric will surely be missed. I know we haven’t seen each other in a few years but we would text to check up on each other quite often. We had some of the best times hunting , fishing or shooting guns or or just sitting around talking. He and I worked together until our jobs changed . We only saw each other at cookouts ever so often. I was hoping to get out to see him and meet all of his Texas family. I’m going to miss him.
Fly high cuz.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all. He looked so much like his dad. Let me know if there’s anything I can do for you.
RIP Brother.
Rest in peace
I will always miss your stories and how loving you were to both Lyricc and myself. Rest in peace sweet man. You forever have left memories in our hearts
Ric joined our organization a few years ago, and was a loyal & active member during the time he was here. Our 2nd Lt. Commander Jackie Dawkins was a close friend, and kept us updated on Ric’s illness. I would like to extend my sympathies to Ric’s extended family in SC & TX.
