I am one of the many Marines who had the honor to serve with our brother, Rick Sanchez. We received the heartbreaking news of Rick's passing this week and can only imagine what his immediate family is going through. Our group of friends wanted to start this page in hopes of providing a small token to help his family with whatever they need during this time to ease their loss.

Rick leaves behind 2 young children and a loving wife, and as Marines, we want to be able to help take care of one another during the toughest of times.

Some of us will be making the trip next week from various places in the United States to lay him to rest as he enters God's kingdom. We will present this gift to his family by then.
