It is hard to believe that it’s been nine years already. I’ll never forget that early morning exit from life that Rick made and how the Angels surrounded us. And, I know I will see him again.

What a touching poem. Yes, his death brought a mountain of changes but you paused to adjust your sails and keep your ship aimed toward living. I’m so proud of all you’ve accomplished since he crossed over. I love you, sister!

Jan, I feel so privileged to have come to know your Rick through the loving pages of your books. His warmth and innate wisdom shine through your words. I believe that the spirits of those that are eternally sleeping guide us, and shelter us with warm memories on our darkest of days. Your great love is an inspiration, my friend.

Oh Jan, I can relate to your feelings through your words and emotions for I have those same feelings about my Sam. I have felt his presence many times and it is such a comfort. Knowing and feeling his presence puts a smile on my heart and face. Once or twice I heard him call my name and I took a deep breath and smiled. those joyous moment in time are so meaningful. I cherish them! We both had wonderful souls in our lives!
