Mrs Ould, Nancy, Bonnie. Billy, Cathy, Iam so sorry for your loss. Rick was a great childhood friend of mine. I so much enjoyed the times as a child I would come to your house and play with rick and billy and cathy. Over the years I lost contact with rick but did get to see him this past summer a few times. The same old boy that I grew up with. While setting here writing this having some laughs and tears thinking about the good times as a child playing with him but also holding back the tears because of the sadness of his passing. Still so young and things unfinished. Rick was a true friend that I know would of helped me if I needed it. So sorry with this void that will be lost in your family and a friendship that I will surly miss.
