While hearing the sad news of the tragic accident which occurred on 2nd of
May 2007 in Texas - USA, that Fr. Francis Xavier Fernandes, our most beloved
Priest who lost his life in a tragic accident along with his other 2
colleagues were returning back after giving the communion to the old &
retarded peoples at old aged homes in Texas - USA.
It was very sad news to all of us that Fr. Francis had passed away without
saying good bye. Everybody those who were in touch with him / close, were
anxiously waiting to see him back in Kuwait. But this wish was never ever
fulfilled at the last. God wants him and that's why he has to go to the lord
almighty.
Our Heartfelt Condolences to the Family of Fr. Francis Xavier Fernandes who
expired on 2nd May 2007 in a heartbreak accident in Texas - USA. May his
SOUL rest in peace!
May the almighty Good God gives his family (Sister), friends and all, the
courage to bear the great loss on their family.
Yes, I lost a great friend and a great brother who was very close to me. I
missed you Fr. Francis Xavier and will never ever see you or hear your
loving voice. But, I'm sad to say that today what I hear at the Kuwait's
Church was a total nonsense. Instead of condolences, the enemies of you and
the lord were happy with smiling face. It hurts me badly when hearing the
different tongues............. Forgive them Lord they do not know what they
are saying!
