Dear Massimo, as you know, words don’t come as easily to me as they do to you; I usually find it easier to express my emotions through music. Today, you’ve cast off a heavy burden and finally taken flight. As if your life story weren't enough, in these last few weeks you’ve demonstrated the strength of your ideas and your faith—something I’ve always envied in you. Just like so many years ago, we found ourselves retracing our youth and singing our old songs from an unusual stage. You were a brother to me, but also a father, and you blazed a trail that I am still following. I love you, my little brother. Safe travels.
Mauro
