Nickey Richardson Program

T HE B ROKEN C HAIN We little knew the day, God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly. In death, we do the same. It broke our hearts to let you go. You did not go alone. For parts of us went with you. The day God called you home. You left us beautiful memories, Your life is still our guide. And alt hough we cannot see you, You are always at our side. Our family chain is broken, And nothing seems the same. But as God calls us one by one, The chain will link again. Lov YouMoe, Eula

In Memory of a Wonderful Brother I hold onto our memories The ones that are so dear To try to keep you always close Now you are not here You were called, it was your time But it is so true You have left a legacy There was no one like you You were very special And i want to say I feel lost in many ways You are not here today But I will never forget you And I know I have been blessed To have you for my brother Because you were the best Mr. Nickey. Lov, Sharon

I respected Nickey about a lot of things. His commitment to his craft, working as an EMT. His love of family. His love of everyone. Most of all, I enjoyed him speaking of his love of Christ, and what thus says the Lord! You Bi Boe, Michael Nickey Shawn-I thank God for allowing you to be in my life for over 41 years. I will keep your laughter in my mind and your memories in my heart. Good brother in laws are the rare jewels of life: Difficult to find and impossible to re place. I have been blessed with quite a few. I will miss you and the memories we shared will be with me for life. Lov, Charlene

I Remember I remember the Nickey, who as a child, was 100% boy - rough as a storm, tough as nails, mischievous, always ready for a fight, daring and adventurous. He played anything with a ball. He served as a junior deacon at our church and played the saxophone at several church events. As a young boy, Nickey was a true Dallas Cowboy fan - I thought he was going to tear up the house when the Cowboys lost a game. lol As a teenager, he was smart, ambitious, polite and passionate. Nickey had great athletic skills, a lover of music, and a leader in his class. In his adult years, Nickey was a man who was pro family. He adored his wife, loved and cared for his mother and grandmother. He was an awesome brother and terrific uncle, one of the best cooks in the family. He proved to be a great provider, teacher, friend, protector and defender and very devoted to his career. Nickey was a REAL man. A ton of memories flood my mind. But, one thing I will never forget is his tender heart towards the Lord Jesus. On several occasions Nickey would say, while break ing down, sobbing heavily, "Pat, God has been good to me. He's been sooo good to me! I tell you, I'm not worthy. I tell you, I don't deserve anything He's done for me!" By now, I'm all messed up, so I would attempt to console him by saying, “Nickey Shawn, none of us are worthy, none of us are deserving.” But, he would continue on, rehearsing accounts of God's grace and mercy towards him. I remember and cherish those moments when Nick ey would open up and share his heart with me. So, I love and honor my brother. He al ways had my back. He served others well and had a heart of gold. Although I miss him so much, I will ALWAYS remember. Foreve grateful. Hug & kisse, Pat Uncle Nickey, You never failed to show compassion for me and share a laugh with me. I will miss you dearly. Thanks for all the love and guidance. You Nephew, Nicholas
