I have many, many good memories of Ricky and me as children. We had a lot of fun and I will always cherish those times together. We also got into trouble together! Nothing ever serious, just silly boy stuff. I often think of Rick and how Mr. & Mrs. Casson must miss him. Rick will always live on in my memory. - Posted by: James Carter (Childhood friend) on: Jan 20, 2014
