Dagdag pa niya, “Ricky fought bravely, not just in the ring, but in his journey through life. He truly had a good fight, and we are all blessed to have been part of his wonderful journey. “
Sa huli, nagpaabot ng panalangin at pakikiramay ang Pambansang Kamao para sa pamilya at mga mahal sa buhay ni Hatton.
“May the Lord give you strength and comfort in this difficult time. May he rest in peace,” pahabol pa nniya.
