Live life to the fullest because it only happens once – Maddi Jenkins
Ricky is survived by his siblings: Sergio “Chelito” Dejesus, Belen “Tita” Almodovar, Pedro “Pete” DeJesus, Edward “Eddie” DeJesus, and Rosalind “Rosie” Lopez. He is preceded by his siblings: Steven Graciani, Michael “Mikey” DeJesus, Judith “Judy/Juju” DeJesus, Fernando “Fred” DeJesus, and David “Aito” Lopez. He is also preceded by his mother Lydia DeJesus.
Ricky worked as an armed guard for several agencies throughout the years. Ricky lived his life to the fullest! He was always ready for a party. He loved celebrating each and every holiday, birthdays, anniversaries and many other occasions. He would go to all sorts of festivals, and most of all…. He loved music and dance.
Although Ricky didn’t have any children of his own, he loved his nieces, great-nieces, nephews and great-nephews as if they were his own. He was family oriented! He was in constant communication with his siblings, nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts, uncles and step-father.
Ricky was proud of both his Puerto Rican Heritage and his American Heritage, this was evident by the amount of memorabilia he had. Ricky’s smile and laughter will be missed by all who knew him and loved him. May he fly high and rest in peace
