Cuba: “The Lion of the East” Passes On
Written byJanine Mendes-Franco
Cuban bloggers mourn the passing of Archbishop Emeritus Pedro Meurice Estiu, who died in Miami at the age of 79. Uncommon Sense calls him “a Cuban patriot and a true man of God”, while Babalu remembers him as “a fierce and unrelenting critic of the Castro dictatorship”; Generation Y honours his “more-than-proven bravery in the face of the arbitrary and authoritarian.”
