Bernardino Gavilanes, “Mino,” 79, died Tuesday, April 19, 2011 peacefully in his sleep at his home with his wife and oldest son by his side.  Mino was born January 4, 1932 in Madrid, Spain to the late Eulalia and Bernardino Gavilanes.  He married the love of his life Iracema Rodrigues on May 30, 1959.  Mino served in the Ejercito Militar in Spain before moving to Brazil in 1956, then to Puerto Rico in 1960 and finally to the United States in 1983.
