Nuvem Asst. Parish Priest dies after saving 3 others (Collapsed and died at Galgibaga beach after saving 3 others from drowning) We read on Herald about the funeral arrangements at 10am today (we got up late) Somehow managed to leave our residence (Agxi) at 11.30am. We would have made it just on time but we got held up in a long traffic jam/Q just before Nuvem. We wasted about 15 minutes in the jam. At Nuvem Church, there was a Mass at 10am and the mortal remains were to be kept there till 12 noon. Eventually we arrived at 12.15 which was too late. Then we straight headed to Colva, 1st ward, the priest residence. There we also met the priest’s mother, sister and brother
