Carmen E. Rovira CalimanoAugust 4, 1914-April 19, 2008
Today would have been her 94th birthday. I miss the days when we caressed her strands of silver hair, and gently massaged her scalp. She relished every moment of these indulgences, as she mumbled...nodded forward, eyelids descending...beginning to snore in soft guttural melodies. If we stopped, she would slowly awaken, and ask us to continue. My brother and I documented many of these moments. We wanted to preserve these instances for days like today, days when our fingers ached for those argentine waves of hair. Como te extrañamos...
