DESCRIPTION: Agustin De La
Rosa (use AgustinDeLaRosa statue Photo) “Our Abuelo” In the true
spirit of a kind grandfather, or abuelo, Agustin De La Rosa was
revered for his wisdom and compassion for children. A Catholic
priest, author and respected leader of post-Spanish Mexico, De La
Rosa used the profits of his many business endeavors to sustain
escuelas – schools for children. He was known far and wide as “The
Protector of the Children of Guadalajara.” De La Rosa is permanently
honored as one of Jalisco’s eminent citizens in bronze sculpture
form at Plaza de los Hombres Ilustres in Guadalajara, the original
of which was the inspiration for this signature sculpture that holds
an important place of honor in every Abuelo’s restaurant.
