I loved Ricky. He was my sister's boyfriend at Southwest Texas State University and later became her husband. He was a great brother in law. I am saddened that he passed away and I didn't know anything about it. Prayers go out to his family and Mother. God bless.

My heart goes out to you for the loss of your loved one. When going through the loss of my father, I drew comfort from God's Word. A scripture that really helped me is Isaiah 41:10. There God implores us to not be anxious because he is with us and assures us " I will really hold on to you with my right hand.' May the God of all comfort be with you at this difficult time.( 1 Cor. 1:3,4)

So very sad to hear. I coached against Rick in the 1980’s and remember us comparing our baby daughters at the time. Years later Rick and I would watch Tiffany and Courtney play volleyball traveling the state and country.
I know it’s cliche but he was a great guy and even greater Dad. I’m stunned and saddened.

As teachers we are a family. Rick was a part of my family for years, first at Creekside then Victory Lakes. His smile would light up the room. How I respected him so much for his unwavering love for his children, Jennifer and Annlynn. May God bless you during this tragic time.

Hi I'm Marissa Black,
I Had Coach Baker For Social Studies In 8th Grade. He Was A Great Person And Was A Really Kind Guy. And He Worked For Coach Hobaugh For Cross Country. When I Was In 8th Grade The Funny Thing Was When I Was In His Class For 8th Grade For Social Studies. He Yelled At The Boys More Than The Girls.

I knew Ricky when we attended SWT. He will always be known as a “shooter”. He was never afraid to take the shot. If there had been a three-point line back in day, look out! He was my teammate and my friend and we shared many good times. God bless his family. Rest In Peace my friend and GO BOBCATS!

I knew Ricky at SWT and he will always be known as a “shooter” in my book. If the three-point line had been in effect back then, look out! Ricky and I were teammates at SWT and we had many good times together. He was a good man and I know he will be missed by all. God Bless his family.
Go Bobcats and Rest In Peace my friend.

Always kind...Always polite...Always "there for his co-workers." I pray for his family and dear Jennifer. My best memories of opening VLIS is watching Rick interact with his students. Things will never be the same for the halls of VLIS and I know for all who loved him. Rick was a true "man." He had dignity and he lived life "his way." My prayers to everyone.

Rick was my colleague for 13 years. He was a good man and he was good to my sons as they went through the athletics program at VLI. I will miss his good morning mumbles as I passed his classroom each day when I came to work. Jennifer, I am truly sorry for your loss. May the Lord bring you comfort and remember that you will be together again some day! “He will wipe away every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Revelation 21:4
Love in Christ, Paula Johnson
