The Ford kids have known the Fuller kids since grade school when we lived across the street from each other on Richmond. I will remember the games we played in the street at night and the baseball practices behind May Goodrell or the games down at GVLL. And then we graduated together at EHS, what memories those were. Rest in Peace my friend and go be with your mom and dad. I can envision that Ricky smile again.

As far back as I can remember the Ford and Fuller families were close neighbors and dear friends. To Karen, Steve, and Jennifer, my heart breaks for you; you are indeed in my thoughts and prayers. I know Rick is now back with his mom and dad in a place where pain and sorrow are replaced by love and joy! Take care my friend., I will miss you.

I was very sorry to hear about Rick. I met him while he was working at a gas station on Euclid. I hired him a few years ago to do yard work and snow removal. I know it must be very difficult to lose him in this manner. He was a unique individual and I know he had a lot of problems. Hopefully he has peace now. All of his family are in my thoughts and prayers
