Re: [Goanet] Beauty Varsha Usgaokar

[Roland Francis]

Talking of her age, I received an email that 51 is probably her ‘wished-for’ 
number mentioned in Wiki.

The writer says she was senior in college to his sister who is now 55!

We are left with no choice but to say that in Varsha’s case, age is just a 
number :))

[Goanet] Dr OliviomMascarenhas, alive in our amidst

[Nelson Lopes]

Dr Olivio Mascarenhas, a  popular Doctor, alive amidst us



Second Palvem , clinic and home, where patients flocked

Day or night, when ill, they hopefully knocked;

He attended  without a fuss or excuse

Poor  or needy , caste or religion , never would  refuse’



A young, fresh , lively, enthusiastic doctor.

Vowed to serve  all , acting as  medical protector,

Patients from surrounding villages and far

Put their faith, trust in self taught, rising star.



Man of few words,reserved,  listener, gave patients his ear

 Patients, freely confided without fear,

Flourishing practice, not source of revenue gain,

Dedicated to alleviate, physical, mental  pain.



 Jaundice ,liver ailment ,  dispensed   secret medical cure,

 Loyal Patients for 56 years, trusted treatment for sure,

Medical diagnosis was accurate and reliable

 No drugs overload, no shot gun therapy ,  admirable.



No gynecologist, midwife services , hospital  to share.

 Performed thousands of deliveries at home with care,

 Not a single birth gone wrong by God`s grace

No disappointments, regrets or mishap  ever  toface;



 Forced to reduce, medical practice due to ill health

Loved , considered patients, as enduring  wealth,

,  Compassionate. charitable, , faith and belief  so strong

Never accused as  doctor or human for any wrong.



 Compelling Circumstances forced ,family doctor to change

There was no other  alternative  or a  wider range,

Trusted and consulted, till the very end

Always remained trusted and a  good friend.



In gratitude ,Second Palvem road bears his name

An award at SSC by grateful  patients, spreads his fame,

A simple, humble, respectful, benevolent soul, I miss

Salute  his indelible memories with a farewell  kiss

INGOA NEWS  05/4/19

[Goanet] Regidor. Alberto Cotta

[Nelson Lopes]

REGIDOR,  MR ALBERTO COTTA
A loving tribute
 
A personality steeped in humility and  adorned with the garb of nobility, 
manifested in simplicity
 
  During Portuguese regime the REGIDOR, present equivalent of  Executive 
Magistrate held an important position for certifying, issuing common documents 
for many services, besides serving as the arbitrator in disputes ,as was 
envisaged by the Govt.   It was both an honourable  and honorary post bestowed 
on him with much thought, faith in his abilities that  he continued it in the 
village of Chinchinim with distinction for many years till liberation of Goa in 
1961.  The villagers sought his good offices with faith  with their personal 
and legal problems , as he had a gift of listening and suggesting his opinions 
in  few words. A small fee of Rs 0.25  was official   for the services rendered 
and he functioned religiously, scrupulously within this limit. He served as the 
vital link with the Govt at the village level. Mr Cota was very considerate, 
unassuming, polite, humble , non controversial or arrogant but humane in his 
approach that sometimes he even waived it  in  the deserving cases. He adhered 
to his position with humility, in a low profile thus maintaining at all times 
cordial and friendly relations. It was for this reason and his good nature of 
easy accessibility that he won everlasting friends and admirers with his 
contacts. The common village folks in large numbers attending his funeral 
services was a testimony to his popularity in the village and a parting tribute 
of gratitude
 
He was the official censor for country plays during Carnaval, which meant that 
all  the country plays( KHELL) with the content had to be compulsorily staged 
for his perusal and certification  that no derogatory criticism against the 
regime in power and only then they were permitted for staging them in the 
village . He trusted them so that they did not have to stage all 3 plays in 
their entirety involving valuable time. It was thus  a venue for the villagers 
for  a free entertainment
.
 It was a very special characteristic of his simple personality  that he would 
attend funeral services of all villagers, personally known or even  unknown and 
irrespective of caste, creed, or status in the society and which gesture 
adhered him lovingly and with respect. It was another peculiar aspect of his  
personality that he paid  many condolence visits on foot and at quite a 
distances..He would very politely and often offer his seat to others during 
religious services, much as needed it  considering  his advanced   age. The 
compassion and concern towards others was evident
I remember lovingly how he was lavish and sincere with his appreciation and 
recognition of others that raised his stature in my mind, as truly, a simple 
and noble soul, worthy of public admiration , recognition  and appreciation
 
Prof. Mrs  Alba Barros Dias Cotta  his loving  wife  was a Prof. of Govt 
Primary Schools and served at Deussua, Sirlim, Palmar Grande Navelim  Velim 
…for 35 years……
She was a disciplined, dedicated educator respected, loved   and admired by 
students and parents
.
They are survived by  sons  Mr. Savio/  Laurita and Mr Oswald   Mrs Nora and  
grandchildren, who continue  their  traditions and legacies
