Before Lucio passed away, his wife, Eulalia 'La La' Alaniz, kept an around-the-clock vigil right outside his first floor hospital window at PAM Specialty Hospital of San Antonio.
Alaniz was joined night and day for more than two weeks by Lucio's 28-year-old son and 41-year-old stepson. For the last week, firefighters from the Houston Professional Fire Fighters Association joined them as well, supplying a tent for the group as they held out hope the 29-year HFD vet would improve.
Lucio had been on a ventilator for days. He died Monday, July 20.
Lucio's passing is considered a line-of-duty death, and the first for the Houston Fire Department from COVID-19.
