My mom died today. Joining my dad who passed away 40 days ago. She was a pretty remarkable lady. An immigrant from Cuba, she lived with the Oblate Sisters of Providence in Baltimore during college. Here (on the left) she is in Cuba in the 1930s. pic.twitter.com/oZNzEqa7ig

She then went on to share some of her memories of her mom:

FTVLive sends our condolences to Soledad and her family.

Like I have said, I have always been a big fan of Soledad and her work and attitude. Now, it’s clear where that all came from.

RIP
