Roberto Clemente Jr.


On this date in 2005, Roberto Clemente Jr. heads to Nicaragua to distribute humanitarian aid in a trip that mirrors that taken by his father which claimed his life 33 years earlier.

"This time of year is difficult for me and the whole family. But I guess what you learn from this is that if you do good in life, you will be rewarded. And I believe that even though my father disappeared 21 years ago, people still respect the kind of man he was. That is very uplifting for me. So trying to do good in the community is something that makes me feel very good." (1994)
