According to Channel24, his younger brother on his send-off said that Ricky was “pure energy and joy” and one needed to feel his presence in order to understand him.
“You were pure energy and joy. You had to be felt to be understood. A speech could never explain the force you are. So, I won’t even try,” the publication quoted him as saying.
