    Wow…this is heartbreaking. I’ve been searching for Rick for many years without success, until now. He and I worked armed security together in Newark. He actually brought a Cadillac from me during that time. We lost contact after the job ended and it saddens me to find this news of his Transition. My Fervent Prayers to and for all that Ricks life touched. May God continue to be with you.
