I did not know Mr Hicks but I would like to extend my deepest sympathy to his family. I know it's not easy to lose someone you love to death. We are promised that we will see our loved one's again. Acts 24 : 15, Psalms 37 : 29, Isaiah 25 verse 8 gives us more comfort for today and hope for the future. Just think how much God wants us to live forever and how much he loves us!
