In the USA TODAY Sports article "Clemente's Impact Wanes in Puerto Rico 40 Years After His Death," author Jorge Ortiz recalls how the famed sportsman was a huge impact on everyone who knew him. The Puerto Rican sportsman had died trying to deliver relief supplies to the Nicaraguan earthquake victims.
And one piece of evidence that Ortiz provided to show how Clemente wanted to help the less fortunate people can be seen in the line where he described how Clemente had boarded a plane to <em>"make sure [the relief supplies] reached the victims of an earthquake in Nicaragua."</em> This effort by Clemente shows how much it means to him to get the supplies safely to the people in their hour of need.
