Angel Gracia Vicente died suddenly in December 2009. He was a founding member and first president of europacolon Spain. He was dedicated to colorectal cancer prevention and improving the quality of life of patients suffering with the disease as he had recovered from colon cancer five years earlier. We want to remember him and recognize his work as head of the association in Spain. God rest his soul.
