Ricky is survived by his children, Ricardo D. and Paula M. Vivas, who were the most important thing is his life. He is also survived by his siblings Jose (Tino) and Lucy Vivas de Casis.

He leaves behind a countless number of long-life friends, who will always remember his determined spirit and his generous heart.
