May was our month! 5th, 28th, 29th and 30th.” “My husband suddenly passed away the morning of Tuesday, May 27th. To those who knew him from his early acting days, he was &#x27;Kiko,&#x27; but to our three kids and I he was simply Daddy/Dada. Today would have been his 51st birthday,” she added.  Details regarding the cause of Red’s death was not disclosed in the post.  Meanwhile, Sandy has appealed to the public for her family’s privacy as they deal with her husband’s demise.  “Please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers.
