M Boyer - Last Journey

Late blog entry..

Funeral on 2nd June 2009


M Boyer –The Final Journey

I was so happy that I was able to attend M Boyer’s funeral.
Many of you may say that I have only attended the funeral because
I am into cameras or videos.  No dears, believe me, I would have gone
with or without cameras
Infact, taking cameras is a big risk not that it might be lost or
stolen but the risk of being caught JoeGoaUk red-handed.

I am sure you all understand why I take cameras with me.

Thank you for not tracking me down.
Thanks to Goa based netters in particular.

- Everything got over just before 6pm. Funeral was on time 3.30 pm like in most
cases.
-  M Boyer’s house is about a KM away from the church,  Funeral should have
taken in a procession rather than taking in a hearse van.
- 22 priests concelebrated mass.  I think Fr. Conceisao was the main celebrant
- M Boyer  grave is very next to Murel Faleiro grave (wife of Eduardo Faleiro)
at the entrance below the from compound as seen in the video
- Arrangement was made for free drinking water bottles and soft drinks.
- The little talk which is usually given after the funeral could have
been organized in a better way.  Perhaps, out side the cemetery with
a stool or stand to stand on it. Sound system was arranged in the
cemetery with generator.
- Mike metha, Ben Evangelisto, Anil Kumar, Fatima, a band drummer (Abdnonio?)
etc  spoke.
- The musicians/brass band could have played more of M Boyer’s old
numbers. They only played same one both at home and after the funeral.

- People say and even some tiatrists say that there should have been more
tiatrists.

I am sure, if there were no tiatr on the day after 3pm, there would
have been more. However, I understand, many tiatrists like CD Silva
etc paid their respect to M Boyer in the morning/afternoon

M Boyer laid to rest
 
So many people paid tearful farewell to Tiatrist Padmashree M. Boyer
