My Favorite Memory

Christopher “Big Chris” and Uncle Ricki “Big Rick”

My favorite memory with my uncle Ricki isn’t a specific moment but rather a trait of his I’ll miss and that is how funny my uncle was. Whenever I would see my uncle I knew he would tease my, dad in the way only a little sibling can, that he would tell tall tales about his life where he ended up sounding like an Oakland Superman, and that he would ask to see how big my muscles were as soon as I walked in. I knew that anytime I visited my uncle Ricki or anytime someone told me a story about him, I would be smiling. I’m going to miss him very much.
