Too funny! He must have been in the mood to hold a baby!

Rick, it's hard to believe your gone so quickly, but that's kind of how your life went: hard & fast with a lot of ups & downs.  I'm sorry I won't be there to celebrate your life, but I can't celebrate with the people that were most unkind to you in life. But, I will celebrate in my own way and remember when we were young. All the times playing in the canal, catching tadpoles & minnows to go fishing behind the big white house. Playing tag, blind man's bluff, red light/green light & all the other running games! I'll remember building forts, having chinaberry fights & playing baseball. I'll laugh again & again over the time at Sebastian: you, Dad & Mando night fishing & that crab grabbed your toe! You screamed to high heaven! 
I'll also remember the fights for my car when you were using. They would get rough & we would listen to each other cry through our bedroom walls & you would apologize saying you didn't know what made you this way. You had so many battles with addictions that took you away from us along the way. I was so happy & proud when you went to rehab and were sober for the 1st time since you were a kid. I wish it had lasted longer for you, but it seems God had other plans.
I will be forever grateful to the staff at Cornerstone Hospice for showing you the compassion & dignity that you were so often denied in life.
I love you Rick & will keep you in my heart. Rest in power.

This is the Rick I like to remember!  Rest in Peace brother.
