“Ricky and his family lived a block down from us on Winthrop Avenue and later in the next block over on Guilford Avenue in Indianapolis. We attended the same school (IPS # 70) for a few years before his family moved out of town. Ricky was always friendly and often joined us in backyard games of flag football, baseball, and occasionally basketball. I'm sorry to hear about his passing but happy to learn that he lived such a full life. Rest in peace, my friend.”
