Paul Stanley published a touching message on Instagram for the birthday of his father, the late driver Paco Stanley. This Friday, July 3, he would turn 84 years old.
“So my kid boss, today 84 years old, I always love you in my (heart). Your granddaughter is beautiful, her name is Victoria, she asks mom for water all night and she calls me Dada hahahahahahaha. And it goes to Pumas (she says puna),” wrote Paul.
The publication includes a photo of Paco Stanley in his youth. Colleagues like Karla Díaz, Shiky and Andrea Escalona showed support with emoticons.
A memory that hurts and celebrates
Paco Stanley died in 1999 due to an attack. Paul was then 14 years old, an age at which paternal presence is key. This week, during the premiere of “Viva la magic!” from Disney on Ice, Paul attended with his wife Joely Bernat and daughter Victoria.
“It was typical to go to the circus, you went to your lunette and had fun, I did experience it well and today I am experiencing it with my daughter,” he recalled.
For Paul, being a father was always a dream. “I’m trying to give him the best, to have a good childhood,” he commented. The process, he assured, is a constant learning.
The emotional Instagram post and recent statements reflect the bond Paul maintains with his father, even two decades after his departure.
