Ricky, so much has happened since I last wrote. A change in the White House, a world-wide pandemic, and now we’re getting ready for a much anticipated midterm election. Oh, and gas hit $6 a gallon. Can you believe it?! Sooo many changes Ricky, but we’ll get through it … we always do. I hope you’re still dancing with the Angels up there. Always Rest In Peace my old friend. And know that your friends on earth think of you often, and miss you terribly. Goodnight … Deborah

Another year has passed since I wrote. Fall is almost here, and the leaves are starting to change colors. It really is beautiful ... In a few months we’ll have another Presidential election. You wouldn’t believe the things that are going on down here Ricky; it’s crazy. But I hope you’re still dancing with the Angels, and your sister too. My continued thoughts and prayers are with you. Rest In Peace my friend ;-) Deborah

I met Ricky at the river and he was so kind to me. He took me to Mexico and on river trips the summer before he died. It is a summer I will never forget. Someone told was talking about Mexico and all of those memories came flooding back. I am happy to see so many people still remember him fondly as I always will.
My Brother :)
