Sorry! What's with the mail? didnt understand! What is the question or problem? What phone call? & why the reference to Ninette Lobo who is based in Bombay since long! I must have missed something as in the dark, so to say. Also, dont know how I landed in this "A GROUP". What group? Jeez! a lot of questions eh? Oh! oh! added to them again😞 Knew Dr. Willie since long as a Dr. and a first class Surgeon ....right from my teens....on a personal level. May his soul rest in peace! Changed track a bit since he became a politician but still a good man despite his "mandatory" association with those not of his kind ..... but he still was good within his noble profession. I am not too sure, but I think Saligao is the only village as far as I can remember where a state funeral was held with a 21-gun salute (by virtue of being the residential place of the good Dr.) at our lovely Church known around the world. That should say it all eh? Seen it on UTube.....felt sad but proud .... setting aside the few differences I had with him in the course of his political footsteps. My condolences to The Family once again!

He was 88. Wilfred, who holds a double FRCS (Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons, (Edinburgh and London) was conferred with several awards, plunged into politics after he contested the assembly elections in 1974. He was recipient of Dr B C Roy Award as "Eminent Medical Man & Statesman" from the Medical Council of India at the hands of then President of India, K R Narayanan. Known for his combative brand of politics, he was the key figure in the Congress (U) win in 1980, which disloged the Maharashtrawadi Gomantak Party after 17 years of rule and changed the face of state politics. De Souza was first sworn in chief minister in 1993. He was dislodged by a rebel group but regained his status after six days till November 1994, the twin stints lasting about 19 months. He also became chief minister in 1998 for a short term from July 30, 1998 till November 26, 1998 when a splinter group toppled his government. The veteran politician represented UGP, Congress (U) and (I), Goa Rajiv Congress, NCP and Trinamool Congress during his political career spanning over three decades. He was admitted to a city hospital affect developing some respiratory problems. First by defeating the 17 years of MGP rule and later by dismantling the Bahujan Samaj politics founded by Bandodkat, Wilfred D'Souza became a central player in the events that brought the Congress to power in Goa in 1980. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/goa/Former-Goa-CM-Dr-Wilfred-de-Souza-passes-away/articleshow/48798863.cms -- P +91-832-2409490 M 9822122436 Twitter: @fn Facebook: fredericknoronha Goa,1556 Shared Content at archive.org https://archive.org/details/goa1556 -- -- Saligao-Net is at http://groups.google.com/group/saligao-net To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe email [email protected] --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Saligao-Net" group.
