Dear Mr & Mrs Sala and family,
We fans of Cardiff City never really got to know your son, Emiliano, yet we feel the hurt of his loss so acutely. Although he never played a game for us or wore our famous blue kit, he was as much of a Bluebird to we fans, as much part of our history, as one who had played many seasons for our Club.
Our emotions are raw and the loss is great, yet nowhere near yours, as he was your son. Yet, in a way he was our son, too; but sadly a son we will never see scoring a winning goal for the mighty Bluebirds.
Though Emiliano was only officially a City player for two days before these tragic events, which have left a huge open wound, he will be forever fondly remembered. Your Emiliano was our Emiliano, too. We are united, with you, in grief.
We know those few short days that he knew he was a Cardiff City player filled him with such joy and expectation for the future. We thank him for loving us so quickly. Be assured Cardiff City fans will love him forever.
May our Emiliano rest in peace and his memory be a blessing to both you and us.
Yours,
Steve Perry.
