"Saying goodbye is painful, yet we find solace in the beautiful moments we shared. You will always live on in the heart of the Orquesta Revé and especially in mine. You've left an indelible mark on our lives," expressed Elito Revé and his Charangón on Facebook.
"As a father, what can I say... although your time on this earth was far too short, it was enough to etch your love and memory into my soul and heart... I carry you and will carry you forever in my memory," reads the post, seemingly penned by the musician himself. "Your family and your eternal Revé bid you farewell with love, looking forward to the day we meet again," the message continues.
