This memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, Rikki-Leigh Lewis who was born in Beaumont, Texas on September 30, 1983 and passed away on January 23, 2005 at the age of 21. We hope that you will enjoy the many memories of Rikki's precious life as you watch the slide show. Although my heart skipped a beat with every picture I added to this site, I enjoyed remembering all the great times and the joy that she brought to so many people, and how she enjoyed the love that each of us gave to her. More pictures will continue to show up so please keep visiting and lighting candles for Rikki. I thank each and every one of her friends and family members for giving our daughter "THE BEST 21 YEARS" of her life. I beg of each of you to make a promise to Rikki that you will wear your seat belts whenever you get in a vehicle. "CLICK 4 RIK". I love you all.
A Foundationwas recently started to encourage everyone to commit to wear their seatbelts in memory of Rikki. Please do not let her death be in vain. If her example can save one life, I know she would be at peace. Please visit us at Click4Rik.org for more information on how to donate to her charity. Please remember to Click4Rik!!!!!!
Thank-you!
We Love you and miss you, every moment of our lives.

Rikki Leigh A smile that could melt your heart. The grace of a butterfly in flight. A heart that was kind and true. A daughter, a sister, a friend. Your love was dancing, and you were so beautiful to watch. From the time you started at the ripe old age of three with Miss Virginia at Alpha Academy, I knew that you were destined to dance. It was once you started at Dancing Plus that I knew their was no turning back. I remember telling you that if you did not maintain good grades in school, dance would be the first thing to go. I think that put the drive in you that you continued to show throughout the rest of your life. Not only did you dance and cheer your way through your school career, you maintained a 3.5 or higher grade point average throughout Middle school, High school and College. I remember the day you tried out for the Sundolls dance team at The Univ. of South Florida. You were so nervous, but somehow you had the grace to hold yourself together and perform with the utmost confidence. The night that I watched you run out of the tunnel at Raymond James Stadium for the first time, my heart was in my knees. As I watched you dance on the field for the first time as the youngest Sundoll, it brought back all the memories of the very first time you walked out on a stage when you were five. I think I was more nervous than you. I sat in my chair and did the dance with you. I counted in my head just to make sure you were keeping time. I had butterflies in my stomach, and I was just a spectator. No matter 5 years old or twenty, I always watched you and saw something in you that was so very special. You had the grace and the confidence of a dancer in all that you did, and that is how I will forever remember you. So my daughter, continue to dance. I will still be sitting here in the audience, with the butterflies in my stomach, counting and keeping time for you, and doing the dance along with you. I love you with every beat of my heart and every step in my dance. MOM
We Love you and miss you, every moment of our lives.
