(Portion of Fidel Guerra letter (December 2004) translated from Spanish...)

Tony, this week I did not receive any message from Cuba. It is necessary to consider that my sister Lety does not have access, all the time, to an Internet connection on her computer. Even then, she does not have [Internet] access, but only to email. Lety is an Electrical Engineer. She works now for a corporation (EcoSol) with foreign capital as a manager of the project department. For many years she worked for an important company of national civil works projects.

Individual Note:
Rough translation from spanish (from Dec 2004 letter from Fidel Guerra)...

....Elaine (familiarly, Laly): At some point, and for reasons that I do not know, Laly legally changed her paternal last name to my mother's maternal last name (Perez). Thus, Laly is legally "Elaine Perez Juvier". She has a daughter, Karina Lopez-Perez, with Bernaldo Lopez. As Laly arbitrarily changed to her paternal last name by which, coincidently, the maternal last name was from her husband, then her daughter Karina has the last names of her father. Laly made the change of last name before knowing Bernaldo. Laly worked many years as a laboratory assistant, first in a Veterinary Research center in Camagüey, and then in the Medicine School of Havana. Only recently I knew that the name of the father of Laly is Angel Perez.

"Miriam lived with my parents (Antonio and Beliza Toledo) in New York for a couple of years (1955-1956). I remember her well. She is a very sweet lady whom I recall with fondness. Of course she must be a old lady by now. she is younger than me by some 5 to 10 years. As you can tell she knew Bobby and Kenny very well."

letter regarding Rolando...
I was asking Miriam about the famous gun that her father Malungo (Juan Ramon Perez) used to pack by his side. Malungo (a nickname meaning "little bad boy") had an important position as a "Mayoral" before the revolution. He managed a sugar cane plantation for the Francisco Sugar Company in the south of Camaguey province, and was responsible for (among other things) paying the workers in the fields. Because he often had lots of cash to do this, he kept a gun with him much of the time. The gun initially belonged to his father (my great grandfather, Maximilliano Perez) which he gave to Malungo. The gun was eventually lost to the revolution, and here´s how. Malungo´s brother in law, Rolando was helping the revolution against Batista by using his jeep to convey troops from one point to another, depending on need. One day, as he was doing this, he was stopped by Batista´s troops. He was arrested and sent to jail. After a month or so, it was decided that Rolando and his cohorts should die. They were taken out to a hill at sunset and lined up. Someone in Batista´s army took aim and with his machine gun, leveled the four of them. Additionally, despite it´s being relatively dark, they went to each man and added one bullet to the head, as insurance. The next morning Batista´s troops returned to the site, but can you guess what? Yep... there were only THREE victims Astonishingly, Rolando, with eight bullets in his body (including one lodged in his skull) had lived. He had limped to a nearby stream to cleanse his wounds, then had managed to make it to safety. Batista´s men went on an extensive hunt, looking for Rolando, and made a stop at Malungo´s house (the husband of his sister, Blanca, a reasonable place to look). They didn´t find him, but in searching, they found Malungo´s gun, and confiscated it. It is sad that this artifact was lost, but amazing that Rolando Plaza had lived. He lived until 1981 when another tragedy struck. He was unloading gas from a fuel truck when the hose burst, ignited, and he was engulfed in flames.
