I wish I could be there. I’m so sorry for your loss. I pray for your peace & comfort. Uncle Rick has a special place in my heart! I will miss him very much. Blessings to all!❤️
I will so miss Rick’s witty humor, he was always so quick with his responses and on point with his sarcasm and humor. My cheeks would hurt from laughing so hard and smiling with anticipation of what Uncie Rick would say next!!!! One of many that I look forward to his greeting when I too get to go home someday. I celebrate that he is free from any pain anxiety or worry he once had.
Praying for your peace Uncle Rick and that you are no longer in pain. We love you and will miss you. God bless you and the entire family as we all grieve this loss. ❤️
Sending the Harper Family much love. I have such fond “little girl” memories of my cousin, Rick Harper and also recognized his great wit and humor in my adult years when we were together. Such a loss for the collective Rickard Family.❤️❤️❤️
Thank you, Lisa. Our entire family has wonderful memories of “our Wichita cousins” at the time we spent together
