How strange fate is. My wife also died these days, her funeral was there the day before yesterday and I jokingly, always to be comical, because in these cases it’s the best thing, otherwise we’re all always crying, I said: Maurizio and my wife died almost simultaneously, and Maurizio with his distinguishing gallantry must have said: ‘Lucia, after you.’ He must have let my wife go first, while he did it after two days. And so we say goodbye, they will be together now.
