Farewell to a forum legend!
I don’t have very many blast white coins that would do Justice to Ricko’s taste. I’ll have to dig into my gone but not forgotten group.
RIP @ricko

RIP RickO, the forum will not be the same!
Ricko will be missed.
Rick and I talked extensively about our love for the Model 1911 pistol. It was his sidearm in the USN and mine in my early USAF days. Here's a blast white stainless steel version in Rick's honor.
USAF (Ret) 1974 - 1994 - The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries. Remembering RickO, a brother in arms.
You will be missed @ricko

Thank you for your service and all the insight and knowledge you brought to this Forum I am sure I speak for all that you will be missed on this platform
For a guy with phenomenal toned coins @Floridafacelifter , you sure do have absolutely just as gorgeous Blast White coins too. I know Ricko would agree each of these would merit his coveted Blast White sticker!
I’ll sure miss him!

I do know he loved the Walkers, and especially the 42, as that was his birthdate. For you Ricko.
He will be missed.

As close to blast as I have, at least that I have an image of
