Rick and I were always good friends. Through out the years, there were many laughs, tears, and talks that can never be forgotten. If time could be turned back and we could live our lives, and friendship over again I would never change a thing. May you RIP, and your memory will live on through all of us. Friends forever, and we will meet up again to relive the olden days days.
