CREDITS

The development of this site was supported by a variety of people with a keen interest in the history of La Adelita , and the goal of erecting a monument to honor her.

Among them:

  • The Mexican Consul in Del Rio, Texas, Ricardo Santana Velázquez , for the initiative to bring together a great team of people to launch this project.

  • Dr. José Alberto Galindo Galindo , writer, historian and researcher, author of the book Un Cielo de Metrallas , who has provided historical information about Adela Velarde Pérez -La Adelita- .

  • Sculptor Leslie Luna , author of the monument project.

  • The artist Adrián Falcón , who provided the photos and coordinated the work meetings.

Mexicans will always have a very special appreciation for all of those mentioned, for rescuing a very important part of Mexico's revolutionary history.

Thanks also to:

  • Selina Fernanda Santos Acosta , for the graphic design of the site.

  • Engineer Miguel Ángel Ramiro Zúñiga , for the development and programming of the site.

Sincerely,

Gustavo Leal Cave
