I’m so sorry to hear of Ricky’s passing. She was always so enthusiastic to see people, and I very much appreciate all she did to organize our Zaffino family reunions. I’m Frank’s daughter and Ricky was my first cousin. Rest in peace Ricky.
A donation was made to Mooseheart from my mom (Aunt Mary and her children…Julie, Tom and Mark). The website didn’t give me an opportunity to make the contribution in Ricky’s name.
