Honoring Ricky– 20 Years in Our Hearts

This coming year will mark 20 years since we lost our beloved Ricky. Though time has passed, his memory and the love we carry for him remain as strong as ever. To honor his life and create a lasting tribute, we are raising funds for a memorial bench in his name.

The bench will be a place for family, friends, and community to sit, reflect, and celebrate the joy he brought into our lives. It will stand as a reminder that although Ricky is no longer with us, his spirit continues to live on in the hearts of all who knew him.

Any funds raised beyond the cost of the bench will be donated to charity in Ricky's honor, continuing the legacy of kindness and love that he embodied

We would also be honored if you shared a brief story or memory of Ricky. When the plaque for the bench is engraved, we hope it will reflect not only the kindness he showed, but also the love and laughter we all shared with him.

We would be so grateful for your support in helping us make this memorial possible. Every contribution, big or small, brings us closer to dedicating this special space in his honor.

We just ask that you help us keep this as quiet as possible from Suzy and Rick—our hope is to surprise them with this special tribute.

This fund will run until March of 2026, when the paperwork needs to be sent to the city.
