"Hello dear Asto, I have rarely expressed my thoughts about a person publicly, because I have always allowed the beauty and uniqueness of relationships, of mutual respect and affection, not to be exploited or thrown to those who do not have the sensitivity to respect certain bonds. In your case, I feel I must make an exception to my rule, because you have a young wife and family members who will be suffering, but above all your little girl deserves to know that her dad was, in every sense, a GOOD PERSON... a GREAT DECENT PERSON... you were the best expression of an ancient, bygone world, in which values such as altruism, elegance, politeness and respect for others reigned supreme. Congratulations, you were one of the best sports figures I have ever come across."
