Mr. Ricky Leslie Tate Jr. 31 years old, of Gainesville, Ga. Departed this life on Saturday, December 5, 2015. Ricky was born in Memphis Tennessee to Cerita Graffaree, and Mr. Ricky Leslie Tate Sr.; He attended West Hall High School. He was employed with Top Notch Personnel, as a Material Handler.
He was a beacon of light to all whom he encountered. His smile was contagious and he never met a stranger. He was full of life and he overflowed with love to all who knew him. Ricky received the Lord at an early age in life and although life had other plans that led him down many different paths he never failed to influence the people he encountered. Ricky was a son, a brother, an uncle and a special friend to many. Although we will miss him here, his presence is required in Heaven.
