Eugenio’s mother paid an emotional tribute to the ‘great warrior’ in a social media statement.
She penned: “One of the things I always asked God for was that I would never have to go through pain like this. I want to inform you that my love, my Tiago, left this morning.
“He fought for 80 days. A great warrior, but God wanted it that way. I can only accept it with enormous pain, which destroys my heart.”
She continued: “To you my beautiful love, Mother just wants you to leave in peace.
“You will definitely have your grandmothers waiting for you, a part of me goes with you. I will love you forever. One day we will meet.”
