The passing of Luna, a revered Cuban journalist, has sparked an outpouring of grief and admiration from colleagues and institutions across Latin America. Jorge Leganoa, president of Prensa Latina, emphasized Luna’s profound impact on the news agency and the nation, announcing plans for a posthumous tribute following a private family ceremony. Ricardo Ronquillo, head of the Union of Journalists of Cuba, hailed Luna as a towering figure in Cuban journalism, particularly during the Revolution. Frank Gonzalez, a lifelong friend and colleague, fondly recalled their six-decade bond, which began at the University of Havana’s School of Journalism. From Buenos Aires, the Latin American Federation of Journalists (FELAP) extended heartfelt condolences, honoring Luna’s legacy. Born in Peru, Luna was a pivotal witness to key hemispheric events, including his assignment in Chile during Salvador Allende’s presidency and the subsequent coup. Throughout his career, Luna held numerous roles at Prensa Latina, including serving as an advisor to the president in his later years. His meticulous work in translating, editing, and publishing articles in English exemplified his unwavering professionalism and dedication.
