“Tears of Gratitude Are Flowing From My Eyes; You Touch My Soul”

With love and gratitude, months since we learned of his departure, we meet in Seville to say goodbye and remember our beloved mentor, Professor Norman Denzin. We appreciate the invitation to say goodbye to him in the journal that he created, a space for the dissemination of qualitative research, from where he supported, in an inclusive way, those who are dedicated to this research in Ibero-America. As members of the A Day in Spanish and Portuguese (ADISP), and one of us being Spanish and the other being Chilean, we want to honor Professor Denzin by remembering some significant moments that we shared with him. We have evoked memories and reflect on the impact of his teachings on our present and our future. Although distance has softened his departure in our hearts, at the same time, they keep his memory alive.
