BY ALL ACCOUNTS, community favourite Ricardo Thompson will be missed.

According to neighbours, the 49-year-old Cleavers Hill, St Joseph resident was found dead in bed yesterday morning, much to the shock of family and friends.

“Ricardo was good person. He never troubled anyone. He liked drinking and he liked dancing. He liked to enjoy himself. He’d do anything for anyone, no matter what it was,” friend Barbara Yarde said.

With his family on the scene, another neighbour said that Thompson was well known in the community and his helpfulness made the manner he was found in all the more difficult to accept. (AD)
