Jessica and Family I express my deepest sympathy to you. Your Mom were friends of my parents(who have both passed away) George and Annie Murray. She worked with my Dad @Preston Trucking and was in the Eastern Star with my Mom . Your Mom was a beautiful person. Find comfort and strength in God. Keep the memories close to your heart.##imported-begin##Yolanda Murray##imported-end##

I was very saddened to hear of the passing of your loved one. I, too, have beautiful memories of "Ricky" as I was her junior counselor at ECSU (Bias Hall). She was always a delightful, positive soul, as she would serenade us with her beautiful voice. Since graduation, I had not kept in touch with her, but the heavens have welcomed an angel to the Pearly Gates. Be encouraged and comforted to know that she brought joy to us and to many that she touched. I will miss her and will keep the family in my prayers.

Just this past October, I inquired about Ricky through her relative, Jack Webb at Elizabeth City State University (ECSU) Homecoming. While I had not seen or spoken with her, she was in my thoughts. Ricky brought joy and inspiration to many of our hearts on the campus of ECSU during our four years (197-75) there. While she wil truely be missed by her family, love ones and the many lives she touched, her spirit of love and inspiration of God will live on in all us in our hearts. Family, may God show you the way to new hope, peace, and happiness in a beautiful life he called home.

To The Lewis, and Horton Family, I, would like to take a moment to extend my sincere condolences in the demise of "RICKY" a true friend. Ricky; and I shared good and bad times but remained too stay strong and hold to the rock, as she would say. Her smile, and most of all her annoiting voice with inspiration with each sounding tone. Family she loved all of you, and would always speak of the love she had for her family. I'll always remember and cherish that early morning phone call from she and Lou , when they told me to get the hospital because the baby was coming, and get here now and that baby was Jessica. I'll also remember always cooking at her house in Federalsburg whenever the Vocies of Determination would have an engagement. Most of all I will miss and remember that smile,meek voice, always telling you to "LET GOD HAVE IT" Family may God continue to bless and keep each of you in his care. I will always remember her sweet smile, meek voice, and always saying"Let God have it" Loving Submitted, Carlton Holmes "pickle"##imported-begin##CARLTON HOLMES##imported-end##
