Ricky really loved basketball too! I asked him one (or many) times why he didn't join the Winder team....and he said if he played for a school team he wouldn't be allowed to play in church sports.. and I want to have a sport that I can just enjoy with the church guys.
Wow! Sometimes the guys just hung out together at the dances...they must be about 15 yrs old here.
Rick was 17 here and this girl asked him to take her to her school dance...They had a great time!
I love seeing him dressed up in a suit!
This is Rick's scout troop--they had great leaders...I think almost everyone in this picture is an Eagle Scout!
Three great guys! Best friends in Utah for an Especially For Youth Conference. They pay money to go to listen to wonderful speakers on religious topics for a week. They had a great time!
He has graduated from Winder-Barrow High early. Worked 2 jobs to go to BYU in April 1996. He had Maymester and Summer classes and in the evenings and on weekends they had fun...here at a rodeo.
Then on campus, there was always something to do...
ummm... he was the U in BYU :-)
And when you're bored...call some friends!
Rick is on the left always with his hat, and sandals. Ricky stayed at BYU thru this 1st full semester, then he went to UVSC, I think it was called. It was smaller, but still had lots of friends. After he died, we went out there to get his things and all his friends and people he went to church with met for a memorial service. It was very touching. I wish I had more and more pictures. I wanted to share a bit of his life with you all.
