This one has been on my mind the past couple of days, its truly bothering me and I'll explain that in a second. Since everyone is sharing memories I guess I should pay my respects.

In life I imagine any man would be flattered by the idea that your memory is in the mind of people you never knew. I didn't know Rico, didnt know his name until this thread so there is no front like I was a close friend. What I do remember though is seeing a kid with a nice ass STi (which influenced me to buy one after selling my G) and had confidence.. if there was one thing I do remember he just did not back down. Which initially had me thinking he was an ass but that is only because he was not backing down from a friend of mine, I never said it but I completely respected him for standing his ground.

And I respect any man who steps up to the plate and be a father, which is why the idea of "no leads" is bothering me. The picture of his child looks eerily similar to a picture of me holding my son when he was born and it hit me hard. After seeing this I sat up all night thinking, wondering, and wishing there was something I could do to help. I saw his family on the news and I am so sorry for the loss, at the least I will pray for him, his family and his child.
