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.

Thanks Fr. Anand for the lovely picture of the Gonzi's gravesite which I had never seen. I see that like him it is unpretentious, though beautiful. And the epitaph is so perfectly descriptive of him: "A man who lived his life for others!"
