He very unpleasant afternoon, the typical release of Ceuta, but the rain complied with the act, was eager to fall, but it seems there was union between the desires of those who were there and the vagaries of nature. It was just what otherwise would have been dull and "She" does not deserve it.
After two years of the approval to dedicate a plaza to the memory of the most beloved and comprehensive policy that has given this city, his daughter Izzie, has had the honor and privilege of unveiling the plaque bearing the name of his mother, Maria del Carmen Plaza Morterero Cerdeira. I've never been so excited, though not for less, we spent a short and beautiful words that explained what it has meant her mother as a person and as a politician, and his gesture touched us all, it was a mixture of admiration , pride and pain.
was a very emotional ceremony. Apart from family, friends, local authorities and party colleagues, came other politicians who were very close to it for the occasion. Dear good example of what it was. They were not all they were, nor were all who were but after all, the inauguration of a place to remember for ever to a person who gave everything for their city, brings people together but not share the same ideology.
plaza is a very pretty child with olive trees, so the symbolism is perfect. If there was one conciliatory, diplomatic and peaceful, that was M ª Carmen, and as we all know the olive tree is the symbol of Peace. The Dove of Peace is represented by an olive branch, therefore, could not have chosen a better location and decorated to his memory.
were always very early in everything. To be a mother, politics, to suffer loss of a daughter, to leave this life and, therefore, to have a place you remember. We always thought that such tributes are given to very elderly with a long and intense life that have meant something, but your life was intense and condensed, so it caught us all by surprise. It was not your turn, do not get played, but death does not ask permission. So you wanted to hurt us, but we are consoled and comforted by all the recognition you are giving because if anyone deserves it, this is You.
finished the act, there were pictures, as usual in these cases, and we were pulling with a bittersweet. Bitter, because we had just to honor a loved one is gone, and sweet to know that the memory of M ª Carmen endure forever in a place where children will be giving you daily life.
Now I can say a mouthful that "already has a name."
