Richie, there are no words that could be said to even touch how much we lost by losing you. You were an amazing son, brother, nephew, cousin, friend, and one hell of a uncle. I will forever carry our last visit in my heart always. I will never forget your blues, and that devilish smile. You made me proud to be your Aunt! Fly high, and kiss all those we have lost before you ???? I love you Richie ????
