Dear Rico,
I’m still in shock and can’t believe that your not here anymore. But I remember the 1st time we met you said “hey don’t you live around the corner…is cool if I come hoop at ya house?” And from that moment we were instantly friends. Once I started taking music seriously you were always my #1 supporter from Day 1. I’ll never forget everything you taught bro..from crypto to being a great husband and traveling the world so I can learn more about myself. You made such and impact on this world and everybody who knew you knows it. I love you cuz and when it’s all said and done I can say….Job Well Done Marine. 
Rest in Paradise

We first met after I checked in to 462 and from that moment I could tell that you were an intelligent and driven young man. You would meet every challenge presented to you with determination and grace. I remember how you would take every chance you could to share your knowledge and wisdom with your junior Marines by taking them aside individually or by gathering them in a school circle for a hip pocket class. You always had such a gravitating personality that drew others toward you. Your presence will be greatly missed. Till we meet again, thrive in Valhalla brother.

Damn, I miss you so much it hurts. We met back in 2011 and we clicked and we have been brothers ever since.  Every one knows how we were, you were #1 and I was #2 or vice versa.  We taught each other life skills and had great times together. We always spoke of how I wanted to meet your mom so I can tell her all of our secrets and you would laugh and say " nah fam." But I've met your mom and understood where you got that amazing personality from.  You touched everyone you met and spoke to,  including me. The kids miss you and so does the wife and I, we love you always. - KITTS

Upon checking into your New Helicopter Squadron HMH 462., at MCAS Miramar, you were quite, eager to learn, and first to volunteer for matters of the Aircraft. I was one of your first Staff NCO’s. Bright, Articulate, and witty, you came to work everyday more knowledgeable then the previous. I enjoyed helping to mentor and guide you, as I could tell that you had a calling to be an Avionics Technician. 
Words can’t express the emptiness that i experienced when I heard that you were no longer with us.  Devil Dawg., I will never forget you, and I know that you are Resting in Paradise and teaching everyone how to love and explaining to them that love conquers ALL. Semper Fi Warrior, until we meet again. God Speed to you and Mrs Brenda Marles and to Everyone who knew and loved you! LOVE YOU MAN! 💪🏾❤️🙏🏾

While we don't personally know Rico, we know his mother, Ms. Vicki and we love her...so we loved Rico.  She spoke so highly of you and you were one of her best friends and partners in crime.  From reading everyone's post, you influenced others and treated others just as kindly as your mother does.  Both of your smiles are infectious and you both light up a room.  While you're gone to soon you are now living life on the streets of gold.  I pray that you shine brighter than before in Heaven and keep a close eye on your mom and remind her that you're around.  We are praying for all of the family who has lost such a sweet soul.

To Ms. Vicki - our hearts have been broken since the moment that we heard the news.  You are our family and we love you.  We know that the coming weeks will be hard, but just know that we will be here for you...ALWAYS!  Keep your head up.  Sending big hugs your way.

Rico....this still seems unreal,even though it’s been a while since we spoke you’ve still left me with amazing memories .
From introducing me to Kevin Gates ...
To Doritos and cheese... hitting me up when you came back to San Diego to visit or for work .The  time we spent together was amazing and I will forever cherish them...
Rest well ....
Praying for your wife and family ❤️

Brenda Lee and family we will continue to pray for you all during your time of sorrow! Love you all! Uncle Willie, Aunt Elaine, Toya, Kesha, and Kenny 

Hey Rico,
I’ve combed through what I would or should say seems like 1000 times over the past few days. It doesn’t feel real that your not here. You’ve been the brother I didnt get to grow up with. I appreciate all the advice, the pep talks, and you calming down when I felt like the world crashing. You’ve been a mentor for so many people and your legacy will live on forever, I promise you. 
I love you big bro, rest easy.

Brenda, the Fort and Marles families,
I am so sorry that you have to experience such grief at a time that should be your happiest. I did not get to meet ' your dearest love' but I am delighted that you found him and had a few wonderful years together.  I heard about your happy and busy life and I knew you were blessed!

 It is just so, so sad that the government for which he gave his best was not there for him when he needed it most.  We can never explain how God works but He does look after all of us even when we think He is not looking. 
 
Knowing the sweet young lady that you are,  he did not want to leave you, but God had ordained that this was his time and his place. We are not in control of these things. And we will never really understand them.

Your extended family is praying that you and the Marles family  have peace in knowing that Rico has found a greater level of personal peace in his heavenly home.  I ask special blessings be granted to you and to his mother.             Grandma Joy & Mr. Bobby


Rico you inspired a lot of people 
You were so smart and witty one of the best marines I had a chance of knowing. I’m really happy I got to know you even though it was a short time. Rest in peace friend

My husband and I met Brenda and Rico when they hired us to do work in one of their homes. I loved Brenda immediately because I could feel the pureness of her spirit. Rico is not much of a talker but my husband said you can tell he is
about his business and that they were good people. Their relationship was definitely goals and they were a great light for other couples. Brenda spoke so highly about Rico and their love was visibly deep and tangible.  My heart breaks for you Brenda. I’m grateful that Rico experienced such a deep and pure love from you. You are such a kind soul and one day it will begin to feel better again. Lots of love from Kurt and I. Rico, may your wonderful soul Rest In Peace. 

Impossible to believe , my
Classmate & fave teacher is gone ! Rest in full peace #CryptoKing

To my cousin vikki , i love you and i want you to keep your head up . I’m ALWAYS here for you 🤞🏽

Nobody really know how he feels
I always thought that you would be here
Why do I always question God but I never pray?

I'd be lyin' if I didn't say I really miss my dog
It's so much of pain in us, always feel like I'm givin' up
It ain't the same no more, death brought me anger
I'm followed by angels and I got some dyin' love
Soon as I got rich, soon as I got famous

Love You Bigg Cuz 4EverUS never THEM💙🙏🏾

Vicki I never got to meet Rico in person but the years we worked together sharing many talks let me know how special he was . My prayers are with you and your mom . I love you V. 🙏🏾

My heart is deeply sadden that you were not able to complete your dreams, but know that many lives you touched will never ever be forgotten.  Now rest in peace my friend. 

Grief is so hard, but the memories of Rico will help you cope.

Love you....I am just a call away....Miss Shirley

My Bestie Vicky, 
Words fail to express my sorrow for your loss. Please know I am with you through this difficult time. 🙏🙏

Cousin you will be truly missed and forever in my heart. I love you always ❤🕊

you will truly be missed cousin I love you forever in my heart ❤❤ lane

you will be truly missed cousin I love you forever in my heart lane

Rico, you were definitely one of a kind. Always was a shoulder anyone can lean on. I hope your life on this earth was everything you. dreamed of. You are forever in my heart. Rest well my friend.  My deepest condolences Ms. Vicky

Man, I still remember the first time we met after our moms had jury duty together. I was playing Crash team Racing and thought I was unbeatable...until I met you. We were so close like blood brothers and knew what the other was thinking at times. Our Dynamic duo mentality was rocksteady for the most part. While our paths were different, we still kept each other in our hearts and soul. I remember we played dominoes late at night discussing our goals and ambitions. We both were the trendsetters of our group but we treated all of our brothers like family. It's never a dull moment with you around. You know that harmonica from Germany you gave me, I learned a few songs on it and was going to play some tunes on it for you. Now each time I play it, I know it will have the Soul of a Marine, Veteran Husband, Friend, Teacher, Business owner, and most importantly, a brother. I am going to miss you man. 

I love you Brother.

Spencer Young

Love you always. You will be truly missed. 

Vickie, 
My condolences goes out to you and family. I can’t imagine the pain you’re going through.  Just know that God makes no mistakes. Rico will forever be in our hearts. I pray that you find comfort and peace during this difficult time. If you need a shoulder to lean on, I am just a call away.  May God continue to bless you and your family.

My dear friend Vicki, my words may not serve to express the sorrow that I feel for the passing of beloved son, Rico. Please accept my heartfelt condolences. May beautiful, joyous memories of your son, bring you comfort during this difficult time. Remember, a great soul never dies, it brings us together again and again. ♥️♥️♥️

My dear friend Vicky  I am thinking about you and praying for you during this painful moment.
 My heart goes out to you  and the family♥️
Rico is in the care of our Heavenly father and his beautiful memories will live in your heart always♥️🙏I Love you and I'm just a phone call away if you need me♥️
.

Not enough words can express the pain in my heart for the loss of you.  You were such an amazing kid that transitioned into phenomenal young man and had accomplished so much in your young life on this earth, but God had greater plans for you.

It's been years since I saw you, but I followed you through your mom. She loved you so much and was always very proud of you. Last time I saw you is when I received a knock at the door and it was you! A proud and very handsome Marine you stood!  I was happy to see you...a surprised visit I will never forget. 

Rico, the boys and I love you and you are going to be missed!  Rest in heavenly peace, my love! 😇😘🥰
