Note |
Según José Manuel LANCHA MARTÍ, "Mi padre [Teodoro LANCHA, hijo adoptado de Emilio] adoraba a su padre. El abuelo Emilio fue en casa un mito. Un hombre querido, admirado y venerado por su bondad, no sólo por mi padre sino por todo el mundo. Era una bellísima persona y mi padre nos hizo apreciarle y conservar su memoria a pesar de haber muerto . . . seis años antes de que naciera el mayor de mis hermanos." (My father [Teodoro Lancha, Emilio's adopted son] adored his father. Grandfather Emilio was a legend in our house. A man beloved, admired and venerated for his goodness, not just by my father but by everyone. He was a beautiful person and my father made us regard him highly and keep his memory despite his having died six years before my oldest brother was born.)
Emilio was the only sibling that didn't move to Cuba, not even briefly. Emilio fue el único hermano que no vivió nunca en Cuba.
