Dear Bush’s,
My name is Matt. I am truly sorry to hear about Ricky. I attended Cumberland Heights with him. He was a great man. He made me laugh every single day that i was around him. Something about his presence always brought a sense of calmness to me. He will always be and my memories and forever in my prayers.
