Rev Fr Francis Thomas Baretto, OCD

(1956-2011)

“Arise, My love,”  He calls you –
“I answer now your prayer;
Your earthly journey ended,
My Life, forever share”!
 
The heavenly choirs of Carmel
No longer could they wait!
For us on earth it was too soon –
For them, it was too late.
 
Jovial by nature,  creative in style;
We enjoyed your company morning and night.
Now may the angels delight in your smile
Where night is no more; and the day always bright.
 
 
A Tribute of love and gratitude from
Rev. Fr. Archibald Gonsalves, OCD (Provincial Superior) and all the Fathers, Brothers and Sisters of the Karnataka Goa Province of Discalced Carmelites.
