Con profundo pesar, la familia Cepeda y Febres informa el fallecimiento de nuestro amado padre, Mario Cepeda. Hoy su voz se eleva al cielo para seguir cantando bomba, mientras el sonido de sus maracas y el eco de su legado permanecerán vivos en cada barril, en cada canto y en el corazón de nuestro pueblo.

Mario Cepeda dedicó su vida a nuestra cultura, dejando una huella imborrable en la bomba puertorriqueña y en todos los que tuvieron el privilegio de conocerlo. Su legado vivirá por generaciones.

Agradecemos de todo corazón las oraciones, las muestras de cariño y el apoyo brindado a nuestra familia durante este difícil momento. Pedimos que continúen elevando una oración por su eterno descanso y por la fortaleza de todos los que hoy sentimos su partida.

Próximamente estaremos notificando la fecha, hora y lugar del velorio y del sepelio de nuestro guerrero, Mario Cepeda, para que todos aquellos que deseen acompañarnos puedan brindarle el último adiós.

Con amor y agradecimiento,
Los hijos de Mario Cepeda, Esposa y familia

Our spring/summer class cycle concluded last night and over the past ten weeks our students have exceeded our wildest expectations. We had so many students we split up into three class sections, and participants learned variations of 6 different bomba rhythms and how to bring it all together as an ensemble with maraca, cuá, coro and dance. We look forward to growing with you all next cycle, starting in September…stay tuned!
