Translation of Alexandro Cabrera’s words:
Death is not something that is overcome, it is experienced, allowing oneself to be accompanied in that process, without running away from it, without pushing it aside, without delaying it. Without evading the pain, leaving it with us because that is the best representation of unexpressed love, always remembering the incredible, tender and beautiful human being that you were. Remembering that you were the first person in the industry who invited me to work in your studio @timtales_com, you trusted me and since then you became a reference and support in my career. Love from the pain of loving you, I am in mourning and for me mourning is nothing more than love refusing to die. From empathy and affection, to all those who suffer your physical absence, a hug.
