Today, after a very long and difficult battle with cancer, my grandfather Jose “Papa” Prida passed. As he passed he was surrounded by the people who loved him most, and is now resting in a much better place. I am very sad that he is no longer with us, but relived in knowing that he is no longer suffering. Papa was a great man. His life was an inspiration. He loved his children, grandchildren, the Altanta Braves, but most of all my grandmother, Mama. Even today, the saddest of days, this photo still warms my heart. It was taken 58 years ago on their wedding day. It describes their life together perfectly- happy, beautiful, and in love. This photo inspires me in my own work. It is just a small glimpse into the happy life they shared.
Please keep my family in your thoughts as we endure this difficult time.
