Passing of Dr. Gaspar Caponi

It is with deep sorrow that the Board of Directors and all SOLACI office staff announce the passing of Dr. Gaspar Caponi. Not only did Dr. Caponi provide healthcare assistance as an interventional cardiologist at the Favaloro Foundation University Hospital, but—because of his academic and scientific vocation—he was also a close collaborator to SOLACI. His extremely active and leading role in our website clearly showed the quality of his work and his commitment until his last days. Most importantly, he was characterized by his kindness.

From SOLACI, we send our condolences to his family and friends in this moment of deep sorrow, and we wish that they find peace in his beloved memory.

Gaspar, you will be missed!

Signed: SOLACI Board of Directors and staff
