To Nancy, family, and friends. I am sorry to say I only recently learned of Ricky’s passing last August. He was such a great, down to earth, happy, “crazy” and joyful guy who loved his family so much. And need I say an excellent, honest painter. The only painter I ever used. Oh and I forgot he could also be so irritating. Halved! Loved his spirit.
Love to all who loved him. RIP dear friend.
