I have to tell you that Ricky worked for me on and off for over 20 years and there isn’t a more honest guy you could ask for. I mean he would tell you the truth no matter what. Very honest with his pay and would work extra hours if needed to help out. He would get mad and quit and come back to work ready to go again. Heck I never fired him or hired him. He would just show up. But I will say he was very very dependable. He said he would meet you or be there at a certain time or do a certain thing he was there. He was also fun if you would give him the chance. Reminds me of us going dancing at vfw. He had a great time and we did to. He would also give a person his last dollar. Didn’t care as long as he had hos bills paid he would give rest away. I knew him more than just being his boss. He was a friend and a loved one that cared about me also. He will be missed by all. I love you Ricky

Rainna,
Prayers for you and your family. We loved Mr. Ricky at the store. We enjoyed his company everyday at lunch. He loved the meatloaf (almost everyday if we had it) and sitting in dining room for an hour or more visiting with other truck drivers and us throughout lunch time. Love you and thinking of you during this difficult time. â¤ï¸
