All of them have received last Thursday from the Mayor of Bilbao Iñaki Azkuna the award that distinguishes the people and institutions of the Biscayan capital who "have worked and are working to leave the name of the city very high", who "always carry it I get wherever they go."

Virginia put the emotional point in this act, acknowledging the "pride" that it is for her to be an ambassador of the city of Bilbao.
