Ricardo Francisco Villar's Obituary
Ricardo Francisco Villar Sr, a beloved Husband, Father, Brother and Grandfather, passed away on June 16, 2025, at the age of 71. Born in New York City, New York, Ricardo frequently reminded everyone that he came from the big apple.
He began his career as an aviation Mechanic and successfully operated Precision Rotables for over 26 years, a company he established in 1995 with just $750.00. Ricardo had a love for fishing, gambling, and even found ways to combine the two. His fondness for the casino led to his final wish of having his ashes scattered on a blackjack table, a request he shared with his family.
He lived life on his own terms right up until his last day, making sure everyone knew it. With a cigarette in one hand and a drink in the other, Ricardo passed away doing what he loved most. His enthusiasm for Polo Ralph Lauren clothing was quickly taken up by his son, who strives to keep that legacy alive today. As for this book-loving, cigarette smoker's cause of death, some might say cancer, but no one should overlook terminal stubbornness.
Having been married for fifty years, Ricardo was survived in death by his wife, Rosa Villar, and his son, Ricardo Villar Jr.
Memorial services will be held at Alexander-Levitt Funeral Home on June 28, 2025, from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm.
The Funeral is located at: 8135 W McNab Rd, Tamarac, FL 33321.
