We learned that Gonzaga passed away the morning of Monday, Jun 29, 2009 in Nairobi, Kenya.
He had been in Goa, India, spending the summer with his mom and family. From India, he travelled to Kenya with his nephew to visit his brother and go on a safari. After 10 days in Kenya on the morning of his return date back to Goa he collapsed and quickly passed away. The cause of death is not known for certain but is suspected to be heart attack.
The most pressing need as of this writing is for transporting his body back to Goa. Your prayers are appreciated for this process that requires coordination with the Kenyan authorities.
We will post more information as we learn the details.
