Although we did not know her" We still feel your lost. As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

I knew Mrs. Rickey through my mother at the hospital volunteering. I would also see her at The Odyssey frequently. She was so pleasant and nice always asked how you were doing. She was a lovely lady and i will miss seeing her "around". My condolences to her family.

Dear Lambert, I am sorry to learn of your Mom's passing, I know that she was a great person. You were a good son to her. On another note, I want to thank you for being so kind to my father while he was alive. You did a lot for my Dad and I know he thought a lot of you. Thanks for being there when I couldn't be there. Take care friend. Giz
