Rico was preceded in death by his; sister (Lillian Droz), brothers (Jose, Tono and Israel Droz), daughters (Maria and Lillian Droz) and granddaughter (Lanita Tiller).
He leaves to continue his legacy and carry his memory; a loving wife and lifetime partner (Luisa Droz Alvarado), four daughters (Carmen, Maritza, Omayra and Mirna Droz), two sons (Jose and Angel Droz), three bonus daughters (Charney Morales-Strand, Lillian Rivera, and Jessica Rodriquez-Droz) two bonus sons (Walter Sudler and Jashanty Droz), ten sisters, nine brothers, over 40 grand and great grandchildren and a host of family and friends.
The family would like to thank everyone for their thoughtful words and expressions of love. There are

Bible Selection: Psalm 23
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
