Ricky was my first cousin, his birthday a day after mine. When we were little, we used to play "Roy Rogers and Dale Evans. His life had been tough growing up but I loved him a lot.

Ricky had a difficult life; at one time, he had to live with our Granny (who was a strict, no fun person). His sister Judy died several years ago of a brain anyurism (I can't spell it!), his mother had many children who were half sisters to Ricky. The worst thing was his wife Novella died in February of 2017 and seven months later, Ricky passed away. But he was such a good person.
