DEATH OF SALESIAN IN TIMOR
 
Fr. Boedi
 
JAKARTA: 9th Jan 01 --
in case the news which Fr. Provincial communicated through e-mail has not reached you, I would like to make sure that you are informed that our beloved confrere Fr. Luigi de Pretto has passed away. Here is what Fr. Provincial wrote:
 
>Rev. Fr. Luigi De Pretto passed away last night, 6 January in Venilale, East Timor. We ask for your prayers for the repose of his soul in case he still needs our prayers. He is a person loved and esteemed by all. His
memory and good examples of simplicity, fidelity to duty, suffering in silence and holy resignation, will surely encourage us all in our vice-province of East Timor-Indonesia to continue to be faithful to our vocation.

In Don Bosco,
Fr. Andrew Wong
