With admirable clarity and energy for her age, Candulia, as close family and friends call her, asked for “all the good” and “a lot of health” for all mothers, and expressed her wish for wars to end.
She declared herself to be a happy mother, for the love she receives from her son Eleduvildo, her six grandchildren, and the rest of her descendants.
