He was a fine man.  I am thankful his struggles are over, but I will miss visiting with him.

Sorry to hear of his passing.

I lost a good friend.  Someone that I was blessed to hunt with a few times.  I learned much about turkey calls from Rickey.  Rest now my friend.  I'm sure that you and AuggieDog Bruce will be sitting on the ridge up there in the morning.  Long beards and long spurs my friend. 

Rickey went by Hunter22.  I'm sure that most of you remember him posting his calls.  You may not have known the name.

I hate to hear that.  I didn't know the man but have heard nothing but good things about him.  Prayers for all involved.
If I'm not back in five minutes, wait longer!

He was a fighter for sure, not a drop of quit in him!  Loved, loved, loved the sport of turkey hunting and turkey call collecting.  RIP ole buddy.  Prayers for your family.

His family said instead of sending flowers send donations to St Judes. I have no idea how to start one of those accounts but was thinking it would be pretty cool to start something and donate the proceeds to St Judes from his turkey hunting brothers in his honor.

Ricky was a stand up guy. Was blessed to have known him for the last ten years or so. I enjoyed many conversations on this board where I met him the first time. Im sad he is gone but rejoice that his suffering is now over.
