 | | Fulfilling his last wish, the precious ashes of Antonio Gades, the exceptional dancer and choreographer, revolutionary, communist and friend of our country arrived in Havana from Madrid on July 22, brought, as he asked, by his widow Eugenia and daughters María, Tamara and Celia, accompanied by a small group of close collaborators and friends. |
 | | When his remains arrived at the headquarters of the Ministry of the Revolutionary Armed Forces they were temporarily deposited there in a simple ceremony in the presence of his closest family and comrades Raúl and Vilma, Colomé and López Miera, pending their transfer to a definite resting place. |
 | | They will remain there under the close custody of his faithful friend Raúl, whom he elected to call compadre, under the Martí concept superlatively expressing an intimate friendship forged over 30 years. |
