At midday, we received the very sad news that our colleague Graciela Guerrero Garay had died after being admitted to Dr. Ernesto Guevara de la Serna General Teaching Hospital with pneumonia for several days.

Las Tunas, Cuba.- We are publishing this note with deep sadness in our group because we are talking about someone who gave her life to our media and poured a lot of talent and love for her profession into our printed and digital editions. The pages of Juventud Rebelde newspaper also attested to her passion for "the best job in the world."

We owe the existence of our digital site to a large extent to Graciela, and the joy of receiving the Rosano Zamora Paadín Lifetime Achievement Award, awarded this year by the provincial delegation of the Union of Journalists of Cuba (UPEC), was still fresh.

The heartbreak is greater because she had a wonderful blend of temperament, tenderness, and a sense of belonging that made her truly special in her relationship with all her colleagues and in her struggles for 26 to be better. The youngest members of our newsroom see her as a loving mother, one of those who pushes her children to succeed without the slightest qualms.

Thank you, Chely, for so much. You will always be with us. Oblivion will never be your home. Applauses for your life and work.
