“When tomorrow starts without you, and your face we do not see,

We’ll cry and sigh as we say ‘Goodbye’ and try not hard to grieve.

 

Your sweet, loving disposition, always gracious, generous and kind,

Will never be erased from every known person’s mind.

 

You brought us up to live good lives and to Our God be ever true,

We laughed, we sang, we held your hand and will always cherish you.

 

We pray today with grateful hearts, for being truly blessed,

And ask Dear Lord to grant your soul, peace and eternal rest.”

 

– ‘Tribute to Mum’ by Gail D’Souza –

    My deepest condolences to ALL the Nigli family and their families. Gail’s tribute is so apt and perfect for Ma. I cant imagine the pain you are all enduring as you bid Ma Nigli farewell and send her with blessings on her final journey to be with Da Oscar. Ma always had a special place in my heart and I am honoured to have spent my holidays with her and the family at The Arbor. Also honoured to have heard her feeble voice 2 days prior to her passing. Such fond memories will remain with me forever. The world is a much better place for having you in it. You will be truly missed. Love you heaps. Carolyn Simons

    Our deepest condolences to the immediate and extended families. Growing up in Bandra, it was such a joy to know Uncle Oscar and Aunty Bernie. Now it’s comforting knowing that 2 hearts are rejoined and rejoicing in heaven. May their souls rest in peace. With deepest sympathy – Aloo n Fi (friends of Natasha Nigli Mealing)
