COCONUT GROVE, FLA. (WSVN) - A memorial service was held Wednesday morning to honor the life and legacy of Commissioner Manolo Reyes, who died last week.
The service was held at Miami City Hall in Coconut Grove. Those in attendance said their final goodbyes and honored his career in public service.
“Manolo became my second dad, and nine months later when my dad passed, Manolo always made sure to treat me like his second daughter,” his daughter-in-law, Adriana Pereira Reyes, said. “Always in my corner, always giving me love and always giving me counsel.”
Reyes has served as a Miami City Commissioner for District 4 since he was elected in 2017.
He was hospitalized for declining health and faced several health issues in recent years, including cancer.
Reyes was 80 years old.
