The funeral ceremony starts at 12 o’clock, which would certainly have made us happy Raffaella Carrà, which has always kept to punctuality. In the basilica of Santa Maria all’Ara Coeli for the last farewell to the artist, everyone is there, from the mayor of Rome Virginia Raggi to the historical companion and director of his shows Sergio Japino, from Minister Dario Franceschini to colleagues and friends such as Milly Carlucci, Massimo Lopez, Milly Carlucci and Enzo Paolo Turchi. The audience follows the function from the large screen set up in Piazza del Campidoglio, and the emotion is very difficult to maintain.

«It is a heavy farewell, a pain that grips us. G.The artists do not know how much good they do to people, but these days it has been seen how much affection it has sown, an affection without colors or flags »says Friar Simone Castaldi, for years alongside Raffaella in her journey of faith. I am celebrating the funeral four Capuchin friars friends of the Carrà arrived specifically from the convent of San Giovanni Rotondo, who announce that the urn in which the artist’s ashes will be kept will soon reach Monte Argentario, the place where Carrà loved to spend his holidays. “We are ready to welcome you, everything is already set up for the family,” explains Franco Borghini, mayor of the Tuscan town.

«Italy stops to pay homage to a great woman, an icon for the world, endowed with enormous charisma and empathy. Today Italy stops to honor a great woman who was an icon of our country, and not only within national borders “ Virginia Raggi explains, adding that Raffaella “has accompanied many transformations in our country, social and cultural achievements and has managed to enter the life of each of us”. At the end of the function, the applause lasted many minutes and then gave way to the choir to the music of the most famous songs of the Carrà, from the Tuca Tuca a Dance Dance.
