Dear Rickert Family,
I am sorry for your loss. I hope this communication does
not upset anyone or show any disrespect.
I knew an Eric Rickert in the Canal Zone in Panama when I was in the
7th, 8th and 9th grades. His father was in the military and the family
was stationed in Panama. He had a younger sister, Gretchen, I think.
Friends who I have kept in contact with from that time sometimes
ask what happened to Eric. It was a long time ago, but he was our
friend and we'd like to know. I came across this obit. and photo today
and I am wondering if it is the same Eric Rickert.
Again, I hope this inquiry does not offend anyone.
Sincerely,
Eileen Rose-Thomas
