Deeply saddened to learn of Ricky’s passing.Thinking of Ricky’s boys whom he adored. We have not seen Ricky in a very long time - but, we do have the fondest of happy memories, many laughs, pranks too - great times!! Ricky was the manager of Ballymacarett Leisure Centre - my two children Jonathan and Sarah attended the summer scheme ‘every year’ - they loved it. Ricky was fantastic with the kids. My son had broken his wrist at the scheme one year - coming down the slide. Ricky used to go and check out the area for their weekly trips - because my son couldn’t participate in much with having had surgery and then a full cast on. Ricky would've taken him with him to suss out the venues - he loved this and him and Ricky formed a great bond. [Jonathan] said the Ricky was the best driver!“Truly wonderful memories, the staff in Ballymac were like one big family - Ricky being the head of that family, ‘a truly wonderful gentleman’ who was, ‘highly thought of’ Unfortunately we did lose touch over the years!”Thinking of Ben, Louis and family. God bless.Pauline, Sarah and Jonathan Greenaway.
