Dr. Leo Rebello - (former) Goanetter ??
RONALD REBELLO
in memoriam
by Fayyaz Pathan
Ronald Rebello (25), son of Dr. Leo Rebello and Mrs. Kashmira Rebello and
brother of Robin Rebello, passed away on Friday, 23rd February, 2007, after
25 days of high fever which remained undiagnosed or refused to reduce
inspite of comprehensive tests and best of treatment, creating a heavy void
for his friends and extreme grief for his family. All those present at his
funeral said that a saint had died too young.
Ronald graduated (BSW) from the Nirmala Niketan College of Social Work, in
2004, then went to Sweden on the prestigious SIDA Scholarship. Visited UK,
Germany, France, Denmark and Finland and returned to India to work for the
poor and downtrodden, like his father. His heart was with the Tribals.
Ronald also participated in the World Social Forum in Bombay and the
European Social Forum in London, actively.
Presently he was doing his LL.B part II at the New Law College, Matunga,
and, like his father Dr. Leo Rebello, was very active in social work. His
letters to the editors were accurate, brief and clear.
He founded Justice Corps to educate people on Law and bring about much
needed reforms. Next month he was bound for Japan on a Swiss scholarship,
but Allah, the merciful, called him to His side.
Ronald's friends will meet at the Rebello residence on Sunday 4th March to
plan for future activities in his memory and to complete his unfinished
goals; like he was working on 25 different manuscripts.
They also wish to bring out a book entitled Ronald Rebello - the saint who
died young and institute scholarships at the Nirmala Niketan in his revered
memory.
Ronald Rebello, R.I.P. Our sympathies to grief stricken parents, Mrs.
Kashmira Rebello and Dr. Leo Rebello and his brother Robin Rebello. Readers
