[Goanet] Antonio (Tony) Rodrigues RIP
It is with great sadness that, on behalf of my family. I announce the sad passing away of our beloved Antonio (Tony) Rodrigues (son of the late Roque Cosmo Concesao Rodrigues and the late Concesao Rodrigues) on Monday 20th June at 4.20pm after a short illness at the Royal Berkshire Hospital, Reading. Tony was a well known member of our community in Slough and beyond and was perhaps more widely known for the catering firm he ran with his wife Suzana, Tony Suzy Caterers. Tony spent the early part of his life in Malawi, where he was born in 1950, and later went to Goa to complete his studies. He settled in Slough, England in the late seventies and worked for many years at Mars Confectionaries. He was a very active and enthusiastichttp://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=enrls=com.microsoft:en-USrlz=1I7ADSA_ensa=Xei=ZLQBTrHlHIrNhAf9sPGSDQved=0CC0QvwUoAQq=enthusiasticspell=1 part of our community, and will be missed greatly especially for his great skills in organising sporting and social events and for the synergy he brought to them. Tony will also be missed for his ever helpful and very pleasant nature. We hope and pray that God will grant him eternal rest and help us all during this difficult time. Funeral arrangements are currently being made and I will post another message to confirm this. Tony is survived by his wife Suzy and daughters Niketa Chloe, sisters/brother Clara (Ivor Gomes), Anna (Ciril de Quadros), Amelia (Blasco Barreto), Boni (Sacramenta) and Dina (George D'Silva) Nieces/nephews Audrey (Giles Rodrigues), Hazel (Jacob), Clifford (Romilla), Blanche (Clinton Rocha), Ian (Emilie), Linsey (Sasha Albisharat), Nicholas, Dixon, Paul, Marie-Claire, Graham Richard grand-nieces/grand-nephews Amanda, Deyn, Thomas Jacob.

[Goanet] Jose Feliciano de Quadros (Aug 3rd 1938 - July 16th 2008) - MESSAGE OF THANKS
My family and I would like to thank everyone for the many messages of sympathy and prayerful support we received on the recent death of our Felix. We were very touched by the sentiments expressed and we received lots of courage to enable us to carry out our duty of saying a final and sad farewell to our Felix in Vancouver. We hope and pray that God will grant him eternal peace. Fr Francis (Goan Chaplain) has very kindly agreed to celebrate the Konkani Mass at 5pm, Sunday 31st August, at Our Lady St. Christopher's Church, Cranford in Felix's memory. Once again , with our very grateful thanks regards and best wishes Ciril de Quadros Slough, England Raia, Goa 'no one is so rich that they cannot receive, no one is so poor that they cannot give' Fr Tony Lopez, SFX From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of de Quadros, Ciril Sent: 21 July 2008 17:04 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [goans_tanzanite] Jose Feliciano de Quadros (Aug 3rd 1938 - July 16th 2008) On behalf of my family I would like to inform friends everywhere of the very sad passing away of our brother Felix. He passed away in Vancouver, British Colombia after a short illness and following is a short recap of his life. Jose Feliciano de Quadroons (or Felix as he was more normally known) was born on August 3rd, 1938 in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania After a short time studying in Goat, Felix returned to Dar Es Salaam and worked for the East African Railways and Harbours Board. During his long time with the EARH he also did stints in Tabora, Mwanza, Mtwara and then returned to Dar Es Salaam after the break up of the East African Union. While in Mtwara Felix married Bernadette Gonsalves (who he had met in Tabora) and they had two sons Michael and James. In his younger days Felix played hockey for the various Goan clubs and was a very avid football fan, especially Manchester United. In November 1975 Felix and his family moved to North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada and Felix worked for the BC Rapid Transit Company until his retirement in November 2007. Felix was always a larger than life figure in our family and was very much loved and respected by all especially the many nieces. With a smile on his face and a strange logic he somehow saw everything very clearly and always had a lot of good advice and help without complain (although I never understood how he liked to listen to Shania Twain - the reason he gave that she was Canadian didn't wash with me, and when I told him that Neil Young was better and a Canadian to boot, he said 'yeah he is good' and after a few minutes 'but Shania is better') Felix is survived by his wife Bernadette and sons Michael and James, granddaughter Edwina, sisters Tereza (Vancouver, Wa), Celina (Seattle) and Yvonne (Seattle) and brothers/sisters-in-law Melecio/Alba (Toronto), Joseph/Alcina (Vancouver) and Ciril/Anna (England) and many nieces, nephews, grandnieces and grandnephews.

Mumbai's fussy high-society dogs can now feast on home-cooked cuisine specially adapted to suite their individual desires and delivered hot to their homes. MUMBAI, India - Mumbai's fussy high-society dogs can now feast on gourmet cuisine specially adapted to their individual tastes and delivered to their homes. More than 500 people have signed up for the Home-Care Dog Food service that caters to canines in Mumbai, India's booming financial and entertainment capital, said the owner of the business, Wasiff Khan. They tell us about their dog's likes, dislikes, allergies, and we come up with a meal plan for the month, Khan said. Owners' habits are also taken into account, said Khan. On Hindu holidays when people do not eat meat for religious reasons, their dogs go vegetarian too. Those who can afford the service, which costs from 30 rupees to 120 rupees ($0.66 to $2.60) daily, are attracted by the convenience, said Khan. Before now, such pet pampering was unheard of in India, where hundreds of millions of people earn less in a day than the cost of these meals and where stray dogs are found on every street corner. Demand for luxuries has grown however as India's economic boom generates a large middle class with disposable income, as well as a small group of very wealthy, particularly in Mumbai. When you eat well, so should your dogs, said Khan, now experimenting with meat-based birthday cakes for his clients. J.C. Khanna, secretary of the local Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, said it was just a case of people trying to do what is best for their pets. The poor share meals with dogs, they spend on medicines if their dog falls sick, he said of shanty-dwellers who care for stray dogs in Mumbai. If the rich can afford to feed their dogs like this, so be it, as long as dogs are loved, he added.

Jessica Dimitrov is my sister Tereza's youngest daughter (Tereza worked at the Standard Bookshop, Acacia Avenue in Dar many years ago, and now lives in Vancouver, Washington). warm regards Ciril de Quadros Manora, Raia Slough, England 'no one is so poor that he cannot give, and no one is so rich that he cannot receive' Fr Tony Lopes TASK FORCE AIMS TO PROTECT VULNERABLE Elderly often targets of greed (in this week's edition of The Reflector newspaper, Vancouver, Washington) Bill Myers, staff reporter Members of a recently-formed task force in Clark County want to prevent vulnerable adults from getting ripped off by greedy friends or relatives. Vancouver attorney Jessica Dimitrov, who helped form the Clark County Vulnerable Adult Task Force, said Washington law RCW 74.34.005 specifically protects vulnerable adults from abuse, neglect, financial exploitation or abandonment. The law authorizes the state Department of Social Health Services and law enforcement agencies to investigate such complaints. Formation of the task force, with a representative from the state Attorney General's Office and members of state and local social welfare and law enforcement agencies (including major crimes detectives), brings focus on financial abuses, said Dimitrov. Clark County prosecutor Art Curtis, a member of the task force, said elder abuse is increasing with the aging of baby boomers. Cases of financial abuse need to be prosecuted where appropriate, he said. A recent example of abuse now in the hands of Clark County prosecutors involves a father charged with 18 felony counts of theft for allegedly taking more than $200,000 from a developmentally-delayed son. In another case, Battle Ground police allege that Terri Tweedell, president of the Battle Ground Chamber of Commerce, took assets from a now-deceased man she had befriended. In her Vancouver practice, Dimitrov specializes in cases involving financial exploitation of vulnerable adults. She has worked on such cases for 11 years, and teaches other attorneys on the subject in Washington State Bar Association continuing education classes. Dimitrov said that all too often, children or grandchildren will, without knowledge of other close family members, use powers of attorney, wills, quit-claim deeds or purchase and sale agreements to take assets from an elderly person who lacks the capacity to give consent. A goal is often to remove assets so a parent or grandparent will qualify for medicaid, said Dimitrov. This is done to shift costs of rest home care to taxpayers who pay the medicaid bills, she said. Dimitrov described how a daughter, without notifying two siblings, depleted the assets of her elderly mother. The daughter began helping her mother when Mom began suffering memory lapses. The daughter convinced Mom to add the daughter's name to the mother's bank account. As the mother's condition worsened, the daughter wrote to her mother's physician, telling him that her mother had Alzheimer's Disease and was frequently getting lost. The daughter urged the doctor to examine her mother and provide a written report. The doctor examined the mother and diagnosed, Alzheimer's type dementia. Three months later, the daughter, with help from a friend in the real estate business, prepared a power of attorney and a quit claim deed. They took the mother to Mom's bank, and the mother signed her home over to the daughter, for love and affection. The daughter and her husband then moved into Mom's home. They had a $60,000 addition added for living space, but within two months placed the mother in a care centre. The daughter and her husband then began spending the balance of the mother's savings. Two siblings, concerned about their mother, began inquiring about their mother's condition and her funds that would be needed for her care. When the daughter with power of attorney refused to provide information, the siblings contacted Dimitrov. Dimitrov said she filed a petition for guardianship on behalf of the siblings, and filed a complaint against the real estate agent for the unauthorized practice of law. A civil court ordered the errant daughter to return assets to Mom's estate.
