Seville (EFE).- The actress, singer and television presenter Carmen Sevilla, who died yesterday in Madrid at the age of 92, will have a street named after her in the city where she was born, as announced by the mayor of Seville, José Luis Sanz.
On his Twitter account, Sanz lamented that “a legend of Spanish song and cinema” has died, emphasizing that “his smile, which saw the light in the Heliópolis neighborhood, will be eternal for Spaniards.”
Thus, he added that “to always remember her, we will take to the plenary session that a street in Seville bear her name”, without yet specifying in which area of the city this recognition will take place.
Born on October 16, 1930 in Seville, she had suffered from Alzheimer’s since 2009 and due to her very deteriorated health she was admitted to a residence in Aravaca (Madrid) in March 2015. Last Sunday she was transferred to the hospital, where she died.
No details have been revealed about how the actress will be fired, or where she will be buried.
