The studio was full of white flowers and pictures of Miguel with that signature smile. Presenters in black and white outfits greeted viewers.

“I believe that ‘De Boca en Boca’ will never be the same without you because it was your program Miguel, to which you gave your heart. You don’t care about anything when it comes to reporting, tomorrow afternoon or in the night. Always think about the content, do an extraordinary job (…) Today I wonder why? Why did you leave? You had so much to give us. I know that we must respect the plans of God. The friend, the brother, the companion, this man who was always with us”, said his friend ‘La Veneno Torres’.

People from the screen were in this space, but especially friends of Miguel such as Mariela Viteri, Jasú Montero, Dayanara Peralta and her husband Jhonatan Estrada who recalled anecdotes with Miguel remembering him with great affection and mourning his loss.
