Sun, Jul 04 2021Very sad to hear the sad demise of Fr Benjamin Aranha whom I first met in 1973 or 74 when we went to give a Christmas programme in Theresapura as seminarians.

Tue, Jun 29 2021I am saddened to hear about the demise of dear Fr. Benjamin Aranha. Deepest condolences to his bereaved family members. I had the privilege of knowing Father personally, when I was the Vice- President of the Koppa Parish Council. He had been very active in several parish activities, always volunteering his time with the youth and parishioners of Koppa, Chikmagaluru. He had a great sense of humor which lightened many situations. His life is an example of simplicity, service, kindness and compassion. His gentle soul will always be in our hearts. Rest in Peace Fr. Aranha.

Tue, Jun 29 2021Fr. Aranha will always be fondly remembered by the parishoners of Sakleshpur parish as he was the one who brought about reconcilation between the Laity and the Faithful in the late Seventies. I also met him several times in the Eighties when I was posted at Hassan. A truly simple man and a good priest. He was well known for his subtle humor that lightened any difficult situations. Rest in peace Fr. Aranha and enjoy a well earned Eternal Bliss !
