Recently, in Puerto Rico, family and friends came together to honor Marisa Vela (widow of Dr. Rosendo Vela) on her 90th birthday during a surprise celebration planned by her daughters Angela, Luisa, and Lucé (the former first lady of Puerto Rico) at the home of Angela and her spouse, Antonio Morera.
The festivities were rich with traditional and joyous moments, featuring close friends who traveled from Spain to take part in the event. Attendees savored a selection of delightful hors d’oeuvres and champagne, all in celebration of an extraordinary woman’s birthday.
