Dear Family,
Rickey and I were in a play together, back at Gentry Middle School. We shared AUT at RBHS. I loved him. He was my dawg. I can not detail the saddness that I feel.

Dear Family,
Rickey and I were in a play together, back at Gentry Middle School. We shared AUT at RBHS. I loved him. He was my dawg. I can not detail the saddness that I feel.
May the Lord blanket you with comfort.
I am saddened and sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you all! I have fond memories with Ricki and Eboni as children in Salisbury. Ricki and my brother were in the same grade and Eboni and I were in the same grade, so there were many days we all played together. What fun personalities they had! I think one of my favorite memories is being the judge for Ricki and my brother during their “slam dunk contests”! May God be with you!
So very sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you, that you will feel Gods presence and love through this painful season in your lives. I have so many fond memories of Ricky and my son playing,learning and growing,part of that growing was spiritually. I was blessed to see a young boy practice what he learned and show Gods love to others. He had a smile so big and genuine, yet sometimes mischievous,it would make me question what the two of them were up to! I don’t know him as the young man he became, but I know his heart as a child was very loving, kind and thoughtful. “For no one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ” 1 Cor3:11 We were fortunate to have him in our lives even though the time was short, again my prayers are with you all.

I am very sorry for your loss. I remember when my mom (Becky White) used to watch Preston and we all would go over to your house in Salisbury and Ricki and Eboni and my sisters would play upstairs. He was a very nice person and always smiled. I know this is a hard time for you all and I know God will help you through it. All you guys have my prayers.
Im am so sorry for your loss. Rickey had the ability to make lasting impressions on the hearts of other. He just had this charisma that you couldn’t ever forget even if you only knew him for a short time.
I went to junior high school with Rickey in Salisbury. I remember how incredibly warm and nice Rickey was even at an age when everyone is so abrasive and high-strung. Rickey was my first kiss and I always thought to myself how lucky I was to have experienced that with someone who was a gentleman and at the time a rare friend to me. With Rickey you could easily tell that he was always going to be a good person and deserved nothing but the best. God Bless you and your entire family, my prayers are with you.
My sincere condolences to Rickey’s Family. Rickey was a beautiful soul, loved by all of us here at Angelo’s…His sweet smile, gentle disposition, ability to make others happy will never be forgotten. Memories of Him are etched in my heart forever.
The Lord must have needed another Angel..Rest in Peace Sweet Rickey… I am Honored to have known you.
I am so sorry for your loss Toni and Rickey. As you know I knew your son at a very young age . He was a beautiful, handsome and very energetic young boy that I got to know very closely. I loved caring for him and Eboni during this short time.I have alot of fond memories of him. My son Christopher and I are deeply saddened by your loss. You both will always be in my prayers. May God Bless you and your families at this time.
Love-Marlene
