To Ricky, Mrs. Lucio, and the rest of the family, I’m very sorry to hear about Mr. Lucio passing. He was a great guy. I can still remember all these years later how kind and welcoming he and Mrs. Lucio were to me when Ricky and I were good friends in elementary school. I always felt like family while in their home. Your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

I have come to know Mr Lucio for 9 yrs living across from him and his wife. He was always so nice to me. We often meet at the street as he walked his little dog Millie. He did always smile but when he did it was contagious. I will miss seeing him almost every day and our short talks. RiP Mr Lucio. No more pain and suffering.

I worked at Delta Cultural Center for 6 years. 2010- 2016. Always enjoyed Richard's visits to DCC for pest management back in the curatorial collections areas. We had interesting discussions about his growing up in Helena.

I remember Mr. Lucio as extremely kind, funny, hardworking, and as always patient with Ricky, myself, and Ricky's other friends; I can still hear his infectious laugh in my mind, almost forty years later. My thoughts go out to Ricky, to Mrs. Lucio, and to Mr. Lucio's entire family during this extremely difficult time of loss.

So sorry to hear about Richard. He was such a sweet guy. We use to like to swap casino stories and what machines we won on and how much, and which casino had the best buffet. Loved the expression on his face when he realized who my sister was in line out Walmart one evening. Goodbye my friend.
