Lisa,

Rick was one of my favorite cousins who helped my brother and with some shenanigans whenever we visited from Maryland. He helped us steal a large chocolate sheet cake from our grandma’s kitchen and we ate it under the porch. Of course nobody was too upset.
So sorry for your loss. Our prayers and thoughts are with your Family. May God Bless. Rick and Melinda Snyder
