Mr. Lacy was born December 15, 1959 in San Angelo where he has been a lifelong resident. Ricky spent 32 years as an automobile technician; 22 years was spent with Gentle Touch Fast Lube where he unexpectedly had to take early retirement due to a sudden illness. Ricky loved his family and had great respect for his friends. You could always find Ricky somewhere on somebody's charcoal grill cooking for his people. He became known as the "Grill Master" and yes, he earned bragging rights.
Ricky was a kind man with a gentle soul a simple no nonsense kind of guy. He spent his entire life in San Angelo amongst family and friends. He loved The Dallas Cowboys and he represented them well. One could always find him at cookouts, playing dominoes or playing a simple hand of spades. Ricky was also a comedian who would have you laughing so hard it would literally hurt your gut.
