Miss Universe 1974 Amparo Muñoz's cause of death still a mystery

Miss Universe 1974 titleholder from Spain, Amparo Muñoz Quesada, died last Sunday, February 27, 2011, but the cause of her death is until now a big mystery.

According to a report from the Spanish website ElPeriodico.com on Monday, her brother Pedro Muñoz only said that Amparo died after a long illness and refused to disclose what's the illness was.

But anyway, whatever that is, she's with our Creator now and may her soul rest in peace!

She was already cremated yesterday at the Parque Cementerio de Málaga in Spain and the Spanish site La Opinión de Málaga has just reported minutes ago that the cremation was strictly private and the press as well as the photographers weren't allowed to come close.

She was 56 years old. (June 21, 1954 to February 27, 2011)
