Gonzi, you celebrate your 49th birthday among the angels and saints. I can vividly see that smile and hear that laughter. Miss you.
Years fly. But the pain at the loss of our Gonzi does not diminish. He was a very affectionate cousin. His BIG heart would encompass all.

Remembering Our Dearest Gonzaga on his birthday
Today is Gonzaga's 47th birthday.
All of us who knew him would definitely call or email to wish him and he would return the call or email expressing his deep appreciation at the thoughtfulness.
He was a large person but even larger was his heart that reached out to one and all.
Fr. Anand da Gama Pais
Gonzi's kid brother

Missing My Angel
Dearest Gonzaga,
The precious birds were singing joyously early this morning, and I thought of YOU. As I awoke from my slumber, I was greeted with the most GLORIOUS sunrise, and I thought of YOU.
How nice it would be to pick up the phone right now and tell you how much I miss YOU, and to hear your wonderful laugh again.
I think of YOU each and every day, and I feel SO BLESSED to have had YOU in my life!
Thank you for being my mentor, friend, and most importantly my guardian angel! Until we meet again...
With Much Love,
Christine Lewman

Happy Birthday Gonzaga
Happy Birthday Gonzaga,
I was painting a mural yesterday at Valley Medical Center in the Child Services examination room and I swear I could feel your presence while I was painting. Then I remembered that you were a recreation therapist for many years at VMC and worked directly with abused children at summer camp. If it is possible to get a "visit", I certainly enjoyed your laughing presence as you suggested I use the medical stool with wheels instead of standing. As I spun around the room with my brushes and pallette I thanked you for your great suggestion.
Miss you lot's, but now I know you visit and I can always have a pleasant chat and some practical advice even when I wasn't asking.
love,
Valerie McNeal

Happy birthday dear brother
Hi Everyone
Today is my brother Gonzaga's birthday.
I use to wait for this day each year as he would always call me from the States a couple of days earlier to ask me 'Anand, what is my birthday gift this year'.
And I would always tell him 'Gonz, you ask and you will get it'.
He would immediately replay in his unique inimitable style 'Oooh, its ok Anand. LIFE IS GOOD'
That is our brother and our unforgettable true and genuine friend GONZAGA
