R.ingratiation, emotion, affection. But also desire and awareness that the time has come to start again. There is all this in the Facebook post that Alberto Angela wrote the journalist and science popularizer Piero a month after his father’s death. “Thanks to all of you for your love, esteem, closeness, warmth that my whole family and I have felt in these difficult days. They have been a huge comfort and an incentive to move forward” he wrote.

With that grace that has always distinguished him even in his broadcasts, the host thanks all the followers, friends and fans who have been close to him in this moment of pain.
“30 days is a short time to mourn for a loved one. They were intense days, spent at times frantically in the whirlwind of strong emotions experienced and in the management of events related to the disappearance of my father“. Here are the first words of Piero Angela’s son in his very long social post one month after his father’s death.

«But these 30 days were also full of slow moments, of pause, of reflection, of listening, of time devoted to reading all the demonstrations of esteem and affection that have come down to us“. And for the “incredible and exciting demonstrations of affection” she wanted to thank everyone via social.
The legacy of Piero Angela
The TV presenter then tells in his post by having read the messages received one by one. Coming from many people who have found in the father some a guide, some a source of inspiration, some a character to imitate.
“It is beautiful, and a source of great pride, to see that Piero has been part, in one way or another, of the life of all of you. And it is equally beautiful to note that his desire to transmit the knowledge that he has carried out throughout his life, up to the last day, has generated important results. Some are already ripe fruits, as evidenced by the many messages of adults who say they owe Piero their interest in the various “areas of knowledge”. And, in some cases, to have made it a profession. Others are sprouts, those of the young people he thought of and for which he committed himself until the last day of his long life ».
It is time to leave
It’s been a month since Piero Angela is gone. Impossible not to miss him. But he left us a message that is worth more than any will. And that his son Alberto wants to follow first and foremost.
“As dad wrote in his last message, Lhe has done his part, now it is up to us, to each of us, to do ours. Now it’s time to take a deep breath and start again, also for me who started traveling again for my work, preparing the programs that you will see in the coming months ».
