The bills states:

“La trayectoria personal y profesional de “Chayanne” ejemplifica los valores que más preciamos como pueblo, entre los que distinguimos el respeto por el prójimo, el amor a la vida y la tierra en que nacimos y la civilidad entre unos y otros, con la cual creamos un mejor futuro para las próximas generaciones. Elmer también ha tenido en su vida la faceta de hombre de familia, casado con la Sra. Marilisa Maronese, con quien ha procreado dos hijos, de nombre Lorenzo Valentino e Isadora Sofía, quienes son los verdaderos tesoros de la vida de este insigne artista”, agrega.

“Esta Asamblea Legislativa, entiende meritorio hacer un reconocimiento y destacar como ejemplo a la persona y el artista, por los logros que ha protagonizado “Chayanne” en su prolífera trayectoria profesional y el buen nombre que ha contribuido a prodigarle a Puerto Rico en el mundo. Esta pieza legislativa pretende oficializar con carácter permanente el nombre de Elmer Figueroa Arce “Chayanne” para la PR-203, ya otorgado por la ciudadanía y de este modo, honrar y exaltar en vida el legado que a su corta edad ha logrado con talento, disciplina y trabajo para su familia, San Lorenzo y todos los puertorriqueños”, sostiene.

Chayanne arrived on a private plane in Mazatlan yesterday to attend the tenth installment of Premios Oye! which will be honoring his 30-year career.

Hotel staff said Chayanne was friendly to tourists and locals who came to greet him, but the security person accompanying him did not allow anyone to approach him or take photographs. In addition to his personal bodyguard, Chayanne also has a hotel security guard.

The hosting center employees reported that Chayanne arrived at the hotel with golf clubs and for a while was sunbathing by the pool, where few people recognized him because he had a cap.
