My heart grieves the loss of Uncle Rick. I wish I could be there with the rest of the family. Please know I am sending love and fervently praying for all of you.
By age, I might have been his father. By my love and respect for Rick Norris, he might have been mine...
Rick was the kind of guy who left an impression on you. He was a fine man with strong character and one of the hardest workers I've ever been around. He and I made friends quickly. There was 20 years between us, but he felt like a brother to me. The world is a lesser place without him, but im soo excited for the day we meet again. My condolences to all of the family.
Bro Matt I’m so sorry for the loss of your dad. You and your family are in our prayers may God keep each one during your time of loss.
Bro Howard and Sis Sharon Dye

My family and I have been very close friends “ family “ to Ricky and Teresa in excess of 20 years. Ricky’s love for our Lord was above all, and his love for his wife Teresa was an amazing and inspiring. His children and grandchildren was the love of his life. It was an honor to have known him and his family.
