SAN MARINO – An evening dedicated to the memory of Mariella Mularoni, who passed away on May 29th, to remember her humanity, kindness and a life based on community service. The Rotary Club of San Marino paid tribute to its Rotarian member with a commemorative meeting that brought together numerous participants and personal and institutional testimonies.
The president of the Club, Giulia Magnani, opened the evening. Councilor Aida Maria Adele Selva, her daughters Giulia Berti and Beatrice Berti, her friend Giulio Caramaschi and her brother-in-law Marino Albani then spoke, helping to reconstruct the different aspects of the woman’s life, from her personal journey to public positions.
During the commemoration, Mariella Mularoni’s commitment as an English language teacher, member of Rotary and institutional figure of the Republic was remembered. During his career he also held the position of Captain Regent, in 2019, and that of Secretary of State for Health, keeping attention to people and community service at the center of his work.
Among the traits most underlined by the participants were sobriety, the ability to listen, respect and kindness accompanied by firmness and determination. Even in the role of Captain Regent, it was remembered, he was able to represent the institutions with balance and sensitivity.
Particular attention was paid to his last public role in healthcare, during which he committed himself to prevention, the protection of the most vulnerable people and the response to the needs of the population. The courage with which he faced his illness, continuing to dedicate himself to work and the community even in the most difficult moments, was also remembered.
In his memory, the Pink October 2026 initiatives were dedicated to his memory. During the evening, the value of the state funeral celebrated by the Republic of San Marino was also recalled, recognition of the institutional and human contribution left by Mariella Mularoni.
The commemoration concluded with a projection of photographs and reflections dedicated to the different phases of his life, from teaching to Rotarian activity, up to his roles in institutions.
For the Rotary Club of San Marino, remembering her means reaffirming the value of service to others, a fundamental principle of Rotarian identity. A legacy which, as emerged from the testimonies, translates into the example of a woman who was able to combine public responsibility, attention to people and humanity.
