Remember Ricky

His Story

Throughout his short life, Richard “Ricky” Andrus, was known to dedicate all he had to others.

Blonde haired, blue eyed, smart mouthed, fun loving, mommas boy that could always be found with Enrique and cooked a mean rack of ribs. This is the kid that literally gave the shirt off his back but would knock out anyone that called his sister a gerbil but him. This young man spent his days assisting the elderly in doing chores, attending appointments, and talking about memories. He was the uncle that called his nephews his best friends. The son that loved his parents and brushed his momma's hair when she couldn't. He was the brother that cried when he saw a soldier in uniform because his own brother was stationed thousands of miles away. The life that was lost to addiction on 10/28/17. He is the spirit that will continue to live on in others.
