Re: RixinPhx passed away today
Mindy,
Please accept my most sincere condolences for the loss of your brother. He was a part of our CC family and he will be very missed. He was such a kind and compassionate man and so incredibly brave. No matter how much adversity he was facing, he always made time to give advice, support and kind words. He never complained and had the most amazing attitude.
Rest in peace dear friend.

Re: RixinPhx passed away today
Wow, knew it was coming but still hard. What an amazing world we live in. Because of this horrid disease, I am shedding a tear for a man that I have never met but was kinda like a wiser, older brother you always looked to for advice. I know he is free of all of this worldly discomfort and watching over us from above.
God bless,
Allen

It's so incredibly sad that Rick is gone. He must have felt so loved spending his last days with his sister. He's on a new pain-free journey now. Rest in peace Rick.
