It is with deep sorrow
and chagrin that I got the sad news of the sad demise of our colleague in
Kuwait Mr. Francisco Machado from Taleigao. During his over three decades of
stay in Kuwait he was a part of our movement in Kuwaiit in support of Goan causes.
Whenever we oganised any activity he was always on forefront to lend his
support. He was a very good musician
playing Violin, Organ and Guitar. He
used to teach music to many young music students during his spare time.
Whenever we organized Manddo
Festivals in Kuwait he was always there with his Violin, he was also a member
of the Choir group in the Kuwait City Church playing his favourite instrument Violin. He was also known as Violonist Machado in
Kuwait. So many times he played for our
functions but never even once he charged us any money knowing the cause behind
it.
In his death we lost a
great Goa lover Goan Francis Machado.
May his soul rest in
peace and may God give courage to his wife and chidren to bear this colossal
loss.
