He brought joy and laughter into every life he touched. If you knew him, you loved him, and he loved you. His Haley was the light of his life. He loved her so much. He loved his Mom and Dad, his brother, and his sisters with an everlasting love. "Uncle Ricky" adored his nieces and nephews and loved doing things with them, especially riding roller coasters, shooting fireworks, and playing guitars. He loved to travel and went all over the world. He loved to hunt, fish play golf, and travel to Nascar races. He loved guns and guitars. He had a heart as big as Texas and giving was as natural to him as breathing. He gave to family, friends, and strangers. Special friends who he loved like brothers were Joey Parker, Brandon Stephens, Wade Jabbour and Scotty Smith. |
