“Death is not true when one has well accomplished one’s life’s work.” Under this premise of Martí, the Holguin academic and cultural promoter Fidel Troya García was remembered and honored by colleagues, friends, and family.
In what was his second home in the Cuban city of parks, the Press House, where he served as president of the Union of Cuban Journalists (UPEC) for several years. The Holguin community gathered to recall every anecdote, lesson, and countless positive actions they remember from Troya.
Fidel worked for many years until his retirement at the municipal radio station Radio Holguin, as head of the press team and program director. He left an indelible mark with his ease of communication, his economic and historical analysis, and his skill in writing daily articles.
In addition to being president of UPEC in this province, where he also leaves his legacy for the closeness. He always showed to every journalism student and press professionals. Also he served as director of Culture and for media outlets such as Telecristal.
Troya, perhaps unknowingly, throughout his life did nothing but sow good in everyone who met him. That’s why each generation of reporters doesn’t hesitate to share that they found in him the eternal teacher and the journalist who loved his profession.
