- When it was time for chores

- Assistant tireless of problems elsewhere, there you could see the papers by arranging for "fat bitch" from a neighbor or by calling (which was the only one in the town, the phone of the council) for a case of multiple births or emergency precipitated .
And that was not all .. Manuel said that the salary of the council had "for potatoes eggs .. if he had to look for more odd jobs." Father of five children and a tireless worker sought life in myriad ways over the map: the camera collector Quéntar urban and Dudar, a correspondent bank (could see it with his little rubber band folders where "enduring" the lyrics of small businesses until they could afford it), insurance billing, sales of coffins, a farmer from a small orchard and a thousand things but take the journey of a man who from six of the day faced with a life cheerful, transmitting at all times that joy to others.
We left at 93. Exactly on February 12. I remember all the people filling the atrium, the church, the plaza, the street. We all wanted to say goodbye to him. Manuel Serrano Vico. From our "Manuel the sheriff.." Peaceful, generous, upright, honest ... I think the history of peoples, the history of our peoples, is written by people like this. Simple and formal people through and through .. Beings who passed through the world to make life easier, more pleasant and bearable for others. A man who as Machado said was "in the best sense of the word, good" and that will always remain in the memory of all who were fortunate enough to be on your way.
