Dear Cherry, Lorna, Franco and Michelle and your families. It was very sad to come to know that our very dear and exceptional friend Joe passed away. May his dear soul R.I.P. and may you all take courage to bear this loss. However, being a man of very positive thinking, he would say, I have gone to join by beloved wife Irene in a better world and will smile on all of you from above. I only wished he had crossed the century mark which was so very close. He was a man with extraordinary qualities of head and heart and a very gracious man always public spirited, and thus at his age was the Chief Traffic Warden of Mangalore!!! Hurrah to this great soul. We will miss him very much.

My dearest Joe Baab, by your leaving me alone, you have orphaned me. I did't have any friend except you. You used to call me and say "Johnel, how are you Putha"? but from now on, no one will call me that way. Our friendship was quite old - some 33 years or so. You often visited my house and have a chat with me; I used to rejoice when you were with me during the visit. I am now 80+ years old and sooner or later, I will meet you in heaven. Bless+me Joe Baab. Yours very sincerely and lovingly - Johnel.

Our deepest condolences to be bereaved family members. Mr. Joe Gonsalves was a towering figure in Mangalore who has left an indelible mark on so many lives by his dedication and selfless service. Just to give an example, he was the head of the Traffic Warden Squad (TWS) . This was launched on October 2015 with the help of the then city Police Commissioner, S. Murugan. He inspired many youth to serve the society. Moreover his deep faith and concern for the well being of the citizens of Mangalore need to be emulated by us. May his soul rest in peace.

Dear Harry, Cheryl, Lorna, Franco, Michelle & bereaved members of the family, The passing away of uncle Joe has been a shock to all of us especially the Sodalists and admirers of brother Joe. Br. Joe was a member of several religious, social and cultural organizations. He has rendered outstanding services to the suffering humanity. He would always contact us and used to enquire about our health and welfare. He was an institution in himself. We can never forget the Jubilee function that was organized a few years back at Milagres church and thereafter at his residence. It was amazing and superb. We were anxiously awaiting the 1st of January, 2022 - his 100th birthday. Our sincere heartfelt condolences to his near and dear ones. We pray God Almighty to grant his noble soul eternal peace.
