«Embraced by the love of his wife, daughter, sisters and brother and by the affection of his closest friends, Franco Di Mare passed away today in Rome».
This is the sad announcement made by the family of the well-known RAI journalist, who was 68 years old and who last April 28 had revealed that he was suffering from cancer: «As a war correspondent I breathed asbestos: I am calm and I don't give up, but from this I do not you heal", he said, describing his battle against mesothelioma.
The funeral will be held in the next few days.
