funeral
On March 27th, 1970, Alcide Cervi passed away, symbol of the Resistance and known as "Papà Cervi" ("Cervi Dad"). Civil funerals are held on March 30th. During the three days before the service, the body was displayed in the Tricolour Flag Room inside Reggio Emilia City Hall, where a continuous crowd of people went to pay tribute to Cervi Dad. High-profile political figures were attending too, such as Sandro Pertini who, accompanied by Mayor Renzo Bonazzo, pays his own trubute to the body and greets Alcide's niece, Maria Cervi. Franco Cigarini recorded with more than a reel the days in celebration of Cervi Dad. The director, in fact, was very close to Alcide, so that he dedicated the documentary "Cervi Dad" to him, made on commission for Unitelefilm.
