This is for a good cause so I am taking the time to forward it. Please read it and if it touches your heart, I can reassure you that Rick was a real person stricken with Transverse Myelitis. He was a fighter right up until the end. I know that times are tough, but if you can send even one dollar, it will be greatly appreciated by Rick's family. My love and Prayers to you all, Judy, Michigan In a message dated 9/21/2009 8:47:48 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, cherp...@msn.com writes:
Cindy, thank you so much for sharing this website with us. It was beautiful, what a wonderful person Rick was. I knew he certainly was here on the TMIC, but had no idea that he was so involved and how he gave so gracefully of himself in everything he did. He will truly be missed by all. R.I.P. dear Rick.

Rick was an incredible man who truely did wake up every morning whistling like Jiminy Cricket. Please read his biography at the website to understand what a great person we lost. Also, if you can, please make a donation to the Transverse Myelitis Association in Rick's name. I know he would have like that.
