After 26 hours in a burning chamber at the Yesid Santos Coliseum, the tribute offered by citizenship to Darío Gómez ended, surrounded by friends and artists who sang for hours the hits that made the man known in the country as the King of Despise a legend. .
The family, who showed their gratitude to the public for accompanying them at this time, finally had a private space before the final goodbye, scheduled for this Saturday.
According to reports, Darío Gómez’s funeral will be held this Saturday at 2:00 pm in the Church of Santa Gema in the west of the city, a ceremony that will be private, without access to the singer’s followers.
After the religious acts, the funeral procession will move along 80th Avenue towards the Campos de Paz Cemetery Park, where the iconic popular music singer will be bid farewell by his closest circle.
Galy Galeano, close friend of Darío Gómez, will be at Campos de Paz, who will sing his friend’s anthem: Nobody is eternal in the world. .
To guarantee the mobility and safety of those attending the funeral and the movement of the hearse, 12 transit agents will accompany the route and carry out the temporary road closures necessary for the passage of the caravan. So the recommendation of the authorities is to avoid traveling through these roads due to the presumed large influx of vehicles and motorcycles, as occurred on the morning of July 27 when the singer’s lifeless body was transferred between the Las Américas Clinic and Legal Medicine.
Despite the intention that this ceremony be private, from different parts of the country they plan to attend the funeral. In fact, it transpired that some caravans left, in order to arrive on time for the funeral. For example, from Santander de Quilichao –in the department of Cauca and distant 488 kilometers from Medellín– the “bus of spite” left this Friday with 39 people whose goal is to say goodbye to their idol in his land. According to one of the organizers of this unusual excursion, each traveler paid $140,000 for the ticket and a bottle of liquor.
In this way, the artist’s fans will continue to express their pain at the departure of the King of Spite
