Dear Rico, May your days be filled with the wonder of God's special love for you. Happy Birthday.Rico
On your birthday, I pray for your happiness, of course, but also for a greater sense of fulfillment in work, an ease of communication with those you love, and a sense of satisfaction in all that you have accomplished. Above all, may you rest secure in the knowledge of God's constant love and care for you, personally. I take this opportunity to THANK-YOU; for all that you have been doing for our St. Mary's Net group..... GREENCHILLIE net group as we call it and I pray that the Lord gives you many more years to enlighten the cyberkars about Goa and Goans. We love your work. It is only because of you, Rico that I could start the yahoogroup to network the alumni of St. Mary's Convent High School, Mapuca, Goa. You helped me start the yahoogroup and you always motivated me that it shall take a while to actually start working. I am happy that we are doing well today and even happier that we have just released a Book "GIRLS IN GREEN...Memoirs from St. Mary's". Even for our Book you have put in so much effort and your precious time and for this I sincerely THANK-YOU from the bottom of my heart, as without your involvement and contribution we Mary's Girls would not ever get connected, and come out with our memories in print. I give full credit to you Rico more because you are not even our ex-student and despite of it you have taken endless pains to bring all our ex-students who have scattered all over the globe together. Thanks for getting me to write and motivating me to do so every now and then..I am indebted to you and for this I THANK the Lord for a guy like RICO who puts in such a tremendous amount of your valuable time to help keep the Goans with all the info needed to know and without you it would have been just impossible to link the Goans all over the world. God Bless Rico, Pamela and the lovely kids. With much love, Arlette Azavedo Mapuca - Goa.
