Our life was centered to our mom. A loving, caring touch was always felt for the five of us. All her tender thoughts was for us. What we shall eat, cleaning clothes, taking care of homework everything was under her fingertips. She loved her home very much. We found her satisfied living in her home rather visiting relatives for long time. When our father died, in my absence, she used to go shopping herself, which she didn't do for a single time, when our father as alive.
My mother's name is Mary Miranda, born in 17th April, 1935 daughter of renowned personality, Lal John Gomes of Barisal area and Teressa Gomes. She is the eldest among three sisters and four brothers. My maternal Uncles are : Rock Ferdinand Gomes, Fedalis Gomes, Flavian Gomes & Felix Gomes. The two of my aunties are: Carmelina & Helena.
Various needy people used to visit her and she used to offer her support as much as possible, without letting us to know. That was she, a mother, an example for us. So after her death, at her funeral, the crowd mourned for her, reflected her love for them. We were amazed to find what a network of love she spread among the needy ones, whom we neglect.
Whenever we are in distress, we call for her to find ways & strength.
May you Rest In Peace
