After the death of world-famous Italian composer Ennio Morricone, known worldwide as "The Master", his family published a farewell letter written by himself before his death.

letter:

"I, Ennio Morricone, have died! So I want to announce my death to all the friends who have always been close to me and also to those who are a little far away and I greet them with a lot of love. Impossible to mention them all!

But, a special greeting is to Pepuccio and Roberta, my friends, very present in the last years of life.

There is only one reason that pushes me to greet everyone like in this letter and do a completely private funeral: I don?t want to bother you!

A heartfelt greeting to Ines, Laura, Sara, Enzo and Norbert because they have shared a big part of life with me and my family.

I want to remember my sisters Adriana, Maria, France and their loved ones and tell them I love them so much.

A big and deep greeting to my children, Marco, Alessandra, Andrea, Giovani, the son's daughter-in-law Monica and my grandchildren Francesca, Valentina, Francesco n and Luca.

I hope they know how much I loved them!

Last (but not least), Maria. I am renewing to her the extraordinary love that has kept us together which I am sorry to leave.

The most painful farewell to her. "
