description: "Gilberto François \"Betico\" Croes was an Aruban political activist who was a proponent for Aruba's separation from the Netherlands Antilles. This eventually occurred in 1986, but following a car accident on 31 December 1985, Croes lapsed into a coma and \nnever became conscious to see his accomplishment. He is best remembered as \"Libertador\" (liberator) and as the father of the Aruban people."
