My dearly departed Richard Andrew Garnero (“Ricky”) would have been 33 years old today.
However, he is no longer physically here on earth to celebrate…Not a day goes by that I don’t miss him deeply and that I don’t think of him
Because of him I am where and who I am today.
Because of him my life is pretty much amazing (despite the few rough days thrown my way)…
If it were not for him I would be a college drop out without a lot going on. I would be sad, miserable, and just “lost.”
Because of him I was able to help ME find ME. Because of him I have learned the true value of WORK. Because of him I have learned to give EVERYONE a 2nd chance. Because of him I am a college graduate, a wife, and a mother (ok well maybe not all because of him, but he is the one who put me on the path to all of these things).
Because of him I learned that GOOD things do NOT come easily.
I have learned to live for others in order to live for myself.
Because of HIM, I am able to thrive and breathe today.
A few of my favorite pics of us/good times we had together while he was here…Wow was I so much heavier before having a baby than after (that is the selfish side of me speaking).
To my dearly departed Ricky…Happy 33rd Birthday my lovely friend. I can’t believe it’s been nearly 7 years since you left us. Not a day goes by that I don’t think of you. Thank you so much for everything you did for me, I would not be where I am today if it were not for you. I am eternally grateful to have had you by my side for the short time that I did. Your enthusiasm for life, your strong work ethic, and your compassion for all live on through your family and friends. I miss you more than a million words could ever say.
I love you and miss you Mr. Incredible. To me, you’ll always be my HERO!
