So sorry to hear of his passing. We grew up at the same time in Cuba and went to Ruston Academy. My family left a little after his. I have not been able to go back to Cuba either.

GoldToken and I will all miss you Pedro, known as Guanarteme on our family game site. You were a phenomenal chess player, an even better checker player and will long be remembered for your contributions to our little gamesite. May you rest in peace my friend.
