Veronika Ricksen has visited Ibrox to see the tributes at the gates
She will always be welcomed into the Rangers family with open armsMy heart breaks for the poor woman. I shed a tear when I read she was less than 24 hours from getting to Fernando when he passed. It's so important for the rangers family to stand by her and the kids.

The family live in Valencia, Ricksen was too ill to fly home so was moved to the hospice in Airdrie.I didn't even realise she wasn't by his side when he passed away. That's heartbreaking for her.
Love to see his daughter lead the team out at Ibrox when she feels up to itMy heart breaks for the poor woman. I shed a tear when I read she was less than 24 hours from getting to Fernando when he passed. It's so important for the rangers family to stand by her and the kids.
Aye i knew that, i just didn't know she wasn't with him on Wednesday morningThe family live in Valencia, Ricksen was too ill to fly home so was moved to the hospice in Airdrie.
For another day, but yeah i did wonder why she wasnt thereAye i knew that, i just didn't know she wasn't with him on Wednesday morning
Let's hope everyone can do something for her and Fernandos child as I read an article saying she was only living off 1300 Euros a month, Fernandos pension.

That is a real good call.Love to see his daughter lead the team out at Ibrox when she feels up to it
Fantastic shout. And as tazza says maybe get them both out at half time so we can show them our support. First home game of 2020 would be idealLove to see his daughter lead the team out at Ibrox when she feels up to it

They could unfurl the SPFL Champions flag.
Absolutely,whenever they feel the time is right.heard on the h&h daily update that Fernando’s ashes are to be scattered in Scotland which says a lot about how much he loved being part of the rangers family and Veronika and his daughter will always have a place in that familyThat is a real good call.
Maybe too much, emotionally, but, Veronika doing a half time draw?
I am sure Stan who organized the games for Fernando will come up with something.maybe hold it at Ibrox on an international breakSomeone has to try and get a legends game of sorts organised in Fernandos memory and all proceeds go to his family
Couldn't someone with a bit of clout (club 1872 perhaps) set this up?Agreed. A GoFundMe page or something. I would happily contribute.
My heart breaks for her.
When we win 55 whenever that maybe, would be fitting to have his wife & daughter do the unfurling of the league flag. That would be a nice touch.Love to see his daughter lead the team out at Ibrox when she feels up to it
She wasn't with him?! How awful. She must be heartbroken.My heart breaks for the poor woman. I shed a tear when I read she was less than 24 hours from getting to Fernando when he passed. It's so important for the rangers family to stand by her and the kids.

It would see thousands of contributions for a devoted woman put through hell for 6 years.

Not for me, this one.When we win 55 whenever that maybe, would be fitting to have his wife & daughter do the unfurling of the league flag. That would be a nice touch.

Their poor wee daughter too.
Would like to see something set up to help them out financially. I'd certainly contribute. Having lost people close to me the last thing you need is to worry about money.
I would love to think DB that’s the case mate ... the family will always have our supportI am sure Stan who organized the games for Fernando will come up with something.maybe hold it at Ibrox on an international break
And Zenit too,great idea even if its a Rangers select v team made up from Sittard,Zenit,AZRangers should organize a tribute game during the winter break with Az Alkmaar or Fortuna Sittard or Rangers v a Az Alkmaar/Fortuna Sittard.
