To Rick’s family, I hope you take comfort in knowing that his suffering is over and he is at peace now. Stay strong and my heart goes out to all of you!!
I was raised in the same neighborhood as the Johnson’s and have long been trying to locate Kathy, Rick’s sister. I’m sorry it had to happen on such a sad occasion. To Kathy and her family, my condolences. I would love to get in contact with Kathy & Shirley, the two people in this family that I remember the most. Kathy was my best friend when I was little and always had a special place in my heart. My Mom, Eileen, loved to call her by her full name, Kathleen Hattie Johnson………..and Shirley was our babysitter several times, me Vikki and my sister LeeAnn. I would ask that the funeral home give Kathy my e-mail address should she ask for it.
