Ritter. I miss you! That laugh and smile, and my gosh what an ATHLETE! We had many laughs playing basketball together at Bobby Mo... I just KNOW you are looking down and laughing now at all of us wearing these masks LOL. Sending comfort to your family. Love ya kiddo. Tell the Lord to let up on us though, 2020 has been something else! XO.

Ritter....I played college basketball with her... She was a friend...compassionate with the biggest smile. I was searching for her... So sad. I'm truly sorry for this loss.

Please accept my heartfelt sympathy. It is natural to experience a gamut of emotions at this time. However, please remember that when the death of a loved one occurs that God is especially close to the broken hearted, that He truly cares about our feelings, He is the hearer of prayer. Revelation 21:4 informs us that soon everything that causes us suffering in life, including death, will be gone forever! Another comforting scripture is at John 5:28, 29; there it says there is going to be a resurrection of life here on earth. I do hope you find comfort in knowing this.

My deepest sympathies to Stacey's family. I had the privilege of meeting her only once a few years ago but remember her for energy. :)
May God wrap you all in His warm light and give you understanding, courage and eventual peace. Your loss is no doubt insurmountable matched only by your gigantic and never-ending love for her.
God bless the Ritter family today and always!

Been struggling to what to say that would ease the pain for friends and family. During sleep last night I dreamt of what seemed like every basketball game and track meet we ever participated in. The thing that stood out was her smile and her love for competition. It ended with the relationship she had with her family and especially Wes and her nieces and nephew as she talked about them always. She was the person we all wish we could be and she made me a stronger competitor when I was young which has helped me through life. She has made me take a 2nd look at my relationship with my family....she just kept teaching :). I will never forget Stacey or what she brought to everyone's life but I have a feeling she is not done.
