Diego Vicente Lucas of Central Falls passed away suddenly on the morning of September 17, 2025 following an accident at his workplace. He was 49 years old.

Diego was born in Quiche, Guatemala on April 15, 1972, son of Francisco Vicente Morales and Michaela Lucas Ajanel. He immigrated to the United States from Guatemala in 2016, settling in Central Falls. With a work ethic that was second to no one's. Diego prided himself on the quality of his work as a laborer in the construction field, most recently in the roofing business.

The simple things in life made Diego happy. He loved having coffee and bread, listening to music and spending time with his family. There wasn't a care in his world and he made sure to remind everyone of this with the words, "don't worry about it". He enjoyed his life and those around him enjoyed Diego.

Diego is survived by his wife Normaydee Vicente. He was the proud father of Francisco Vicente, Diego Vicente, Francisca Vicente, Teresa Vicente. Diego was the beloved grandfather of Sophia Chavez and Cacleia Fernandez. Mr. Vicente is reunited with his son, the late Josue. He was the loving brother of Vicente, Fransica, Maria, Sara, Candelierla, Antonio and the late Lucas and Candelierla.
