Update 9/13/2025:
On September 9th the Rictor’s got a phone call no parent wants to receive and their 20 month old son had a tragic accident. He had to be life flighted for more intense care. On September 12th his battle here on earth concluded. The family is with him in the PICU as he is going to be a hero and save many lives through organ donation. The Rictor’s are both in the Wildland Firefighting community in Prineville, OR. We are collecting donations to help them with medical bills, travel expenses and regular bills while they are out of work to process this tragic event with their older daughter and family. If you do know them they ask for privacy during this time and prayers for their family.
