Rocio 'cerro' sus ojitos.
Rocio Durcal, one of my favorite Spanish singers passed away today after a long battle with cancer in her home in Madrid, Spain. She was famous throughout Latin America and Spain for singing all types of music including pasodobles, ballads, twist, rock and roll, cumbias, rumbas and most of all, rancheras and mariachi. One of the best memories I have of her is seeing her in concert with my mom at the Chicago Theater a few years back and then waiting to meet her as she exited the theater. She will be missed.

'Como quisieramos que sus ojitos jamas se huberian cerrado nunca'. Descanse en paz la gran espanola.
