In Advocate Joe Antao’s death the legal fraternity of Goa has lost a very knowledgeable and resourceful colleague. It was my privileged to be a student of Adv. Antao at the Law College. He was always ever so humble, modest, unassuming and a down to earth soul. He was also closely associated with the socio-cultural arena and went on to be the Sarpanch of his village Guirdolim.
Adv. Antao was heartbroken after his younger son Aaron met with a fatal motorcycle accident some years ago. He must have never recovered from that shocking blow. Today Adv. Antao is no more but the memories of his lucid and enriching lectures on Law will live on. May the soul of my great Professor Joe Antao rest in eternal peace, now in the company of his dear late son Aaron.
