My Prayers go out to the entire Rinck Family. My heart is saddended by the loss of your Wife and Mother.

Mr. Rinck, Mary Ellyn, Gus (Boo Boo), Richie, Jeannie, Henry and Danny; You are in my thoughts and prayers.

All I have to do is close my eyes and I am back in a time when times seemed to be very simple; especially on hot summer nights when all of us were there playing on the corner of 65th and Bell with all of the mothers on the porch (making sure we did not get into any trouble (ha ha).

These memories will be with me forever.

St. Rita of Casia, Pray for us all.

Love,

Joey Marciano
