It was a beautiful day, full of emotion, respect, celebration and happyness. Tears were shed in emotion and rememberance of Pancho Quinto.

Today we celebrated and remembered our time with him and his lifes work and accomplishments.


Pancho, you will live on in our hearts, memories and in the palms of our hands.

Te recordaremos.. Te recordaremos.
We miss you deeply.


I hope you enjoyed the pics. There is also some video footage from today, I will try to get a disk to me soon and get someone to host it for me.

Marcelo.

Less blurry shot.. some of us pose with Pancho.

At times it felt like his spirit was there with us today.

I hope you all enjoyed the pics.

Alafia Abure Abakua!
Those pics were awesome my brother! Like so many others of us, I wish I could have been in the presence of such wonderful and talented people as you all are! It was mindful of you all to hold a celebration for such a wonderful rumbero as "Pancho" Quinto Ibaye 'baye torun!
That was also a great writeup you posted of him, such a wonderful way to commemorate him!

Many blessings!
