The prominent Cuban actor and comedian Medardo Naranjo, popularly known as ‘Mamito’, died this Saturday at the age of 81 in the city of Miami, Florida.

This was announced by the humorous duo Los Pichy Boys, with whom Mamito worked in recent years:

“Another one that is leaving us this 2020, I just finished talking with Jose, Mamito’s son and he tells me that his father passed away. Mamito, you were a great one! We spend the best moments of our career with you on TV, you leave physically but you stay in hearts, you will reach heaven and when the angels ask you: ‘Hey, are you Mamito? You proudly respond to him with: ‘THAT’S HOW IT IS!’ Rest in Peace, ”the duo members said on Facebook.

Mamito Naranjo was one of the favorite artists of the Cuban public in Miami due to his participation in programs such as ‘La Cosa Nostra’ and ‘El Mikimbín de Miami’, from the América TeVé network, as well as ‘Pellízcame que I’m dreaming’, together with the presenter Carlos Otero, who also dedicated a few words to him and to fellow actor and comedian Eddy Calderón, who happened to pass away on Saturday.

“Today two people very dear and respected by me died in Miami. The great comedian Eddy Calderón and the unique Medardo Naranjo ‘Mamito’. I had the honor of working with both of them having unforgettable moments. My condolences to his relatives, ”the Cuban presenter wrote on his social networks.

This Saturday, the Cuban culture in exile also said goodbye to the prominent Cuban comedian Eduardo Ángel Calderón González, popularly known as Eddy Calderón, who died at 65 years of age in Miami, due to cerebrovascular complications after having contracted coronavirus at the end of the past July.

Eddy Calderón gained great popularity thanks to the funny imitations of the late Cuban dictator Fidel Castro Ruz.
