We've lost our friend, colleague, and ally, Bob Ricker, who passed away on Friday, December 4, 2009 after a bout with cancer.
Bob was a courageous and dedicated activist who saw a clear path and stood by the courage of his convictions. His contributions to stopping gun violence in Virginia and across the country will long be remembered.
All of us associated with the Virginia Center for Public Safety would like to express our deepest condolences to Bob's family.
Mike Beard with the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence has posted an eloquent blog entry about Bob and his legacy. We invite you to read it by clicking HERE
