Dear All, It is a great loss to all of us, the sad demise of our neighbour Aunty Ida. She as well uncle Valu will always be rememebered as fond neighbours who worked and envolved with the Donvado and the saligão comunity. I was sad when I heard about her illness and was moved also when I visited Aunty Ida. I can only say that she bore the suffering with a lot of courage and love. May her soul rest in peace.
Our hearthfelt condolences go to to Marjorie, Jennifer, allan and families. Hope God gives them the grace to accept God's call, remember the good achevements and gain an inner strength to continue their good work. Melhores Cumprimentos, Leão Fernandes and family. ================================== CLC - Companhia Logística de Combustíveis, S.A.

When I was a child and boarder at Lourdes Convent she would make beautiful dresses with pockets and frills for all my birthdays. I was so excited to have a new dress from my aunt and the only married sister of my dad and the oldest sister became a nun Sr. Angelica of Ajmer. Next day I would wear it again and go over to her place for Marjie's birthday dinner and all my cousins are also there and Auntie Ida would decorate my hair and put colourful glittering hair clips full on my golden hair and give me lots of matching bangles and rings. Till today you will see shinning clips/scarves on my hair, rings on all my fingers, plenty of bangles and all kinds of jewellery/hats made and worn by me and I think of my dad's younger sister. I am her only niece wearing jewellery and fancy dresses matching every occasion. Auntie Ida loved jewellery and sewing and cooking. Thank you my best friend Annette for remembering my aunt and cousin and what they had done for you before and now. Yesterday was a very sad day for our de Mello and Figueredo families as we all bid farewell to Auntie Ida. My cousin reports to us who could not attend her funeral service that it was beautiful and the church was packed. They missed all of us very much who could not be there yesterday, however they were so happy that my younger brother made it and is in Goa for 3 days to represent us. We all cannot believe that Auntie Ida is no more. Our families met so many of my dad's relative after years and some of whom they couldn't recall. They couldn't tell us how much they all missed my mother Doris and my father Faust too at the funeral. My dad would attend everybody's funeral and sing. The priest who preached put it very aptly, that they have not passed away but are still alive, however they've only changed residence. That was really consoling to all the de Mello and Figeredo families. But we continue to grieve. I wish my deep sympathies to my loving cousins as we call them Marjie, Jenn and Babush who like me have now no parents today and the de Mello families specially Uncle Casmiro who loved his youngest sister so much and saw her suffering at home till the end. Uncle Casmiro a well known priest in Goa and Bombay at Sacred Hearts, St Anthony's and Victoria Churches. Now she is at peace with no more pain and we our family can only pray for her soul to rest in peace. And my prayers are for all our Figueredo and de Mello families so the lord gives us strength to bear the loss by saying "thy will be done". Enternal rest grant unto her Auntie Ida O'Lord and her soul rest in Peace. Love and Prayers, Belinda ________________________________ From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: [SALIGAONET] Condolences - Demise of Mrs. Ida Figueredo, Donvaddo - 6/5/2009 Date: Wed, 6 May 2009 05:47:43 +0000 We were very sorry to hear of the demise of our friend & neighbour - Mrs. Ida Figueredo- in Donvaddo early this morning, and wish to convey our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved family - Marjorie, Jennifer, Alan & their respective families.
