Sue, Keith and Aaron, your Dad was much more than just a friend to me, he was more like a brother. I’ve known (Biddy Bic) my whole life. We were raised together down the street from one another. His family is and always will be my second family. We have shared a lot of memories together, far too many to count. I don’t ever remember not knowing him. I will miss him more than I really can imagine. I truly loved him like a brother and will to the day that I die. RIP my friend until we meet again. This is Keebee saying bye for now Bic , but I’ll see you again one day :pray::heart:

Sue
So very sorry to hear of Little Ricky’s passing. He was one of my favorite people and always enjoyed running into him and visiting. He was truly one of the sweetest men I have ever known.
Prayers for you and all the family.
