Bapa Suci Paus Fransiskus
Paus Fransiskus lahir di Buenos Aires, ibu kota Argentina, pada 17 Desember 1936, dari orang tua keturunan Italia. Dia merupakan anak sulung dari lima bersaudara, dengan keluarganya memiliki hubungan yang erat dan sosok neneknya yang berasal dari Italia telah membantu membentuk imannya. Kakek dan nenek Paus Fransiskus berhasil selamat dari kecelakaan kapal yang mematikan ketika bermigrasi dari Italia ke Argentina. Ketika berusia 16 tahun, Bergoglio atau Paus Fransiskus mendapatkan pengalaman mendalam selama pengakuan dosa yang meyakinkannya untuk menjadi seorang pastor. Dia masuk seminari, namun tiga tahun kemudian mulai mendapatkan pelatihan sebagai seorang Jesuit, ordo religius yang terkenal karena karya misionarisnya. Kemampuan kepemimpinannya pun mulai diakui, dan pada tahun 1973, pada usia 36 tahun, dia diangkat menjadi kepala ordo Jesuit di Argentina -- jabatan yang dipegangnya hingga tahun 1979. Paus Fransiskus kemudian menjadi Uskup Roma tahun 2013, yang menjadi dasar kepausannya pada malam pemilihannya.

Charm Barrett
Our mother was larger than life. Her personality was fun, strong and very caring. She never lived for herself, most of her life was dedicated to others. She was so loved by all who came across her way. I always told her You are the best mother I ever had. Her life was complicated and adventurous, She lived through so much. From living in the middle of aristocracy to living in the jungle, What a life. Full of drama but too full of pure utter love for her kids and all the people who came into her life. She had a wonderful sense of humor and she was interested in technology, UFO's, future. She was so excited for all that was happening with AI and robots. She loved George and Claude our AI's. She told me many ties she was not scared of death as she believe in the after life but, she was very concern about those left behind. Alan was her reason to be in her last years and gave all of her self to their marriage and to their love.

V Kala Gowrisankar
It is with profound sadness that we mourn the passing of V Kala "Kala" Gowrisankar, a remarkable woman and a beloved figure in our community. Known affectionately as Kala, she was born on November 4, 1962, and her soul was gently ushered into eternity on April 12, 2025. A person of poise and dignity, Kala held a unique essence that never failed to inspire those around her. She personified elegance and selflessness, constantly leaving profound impacts on the lives she touched. Her life lessons revolved around the ethos of being humble and kind. These principles guided her at every step, and she passed them on to others with her unique grace. Many would remember Kala for her accomplishments that were testament to her intellect, passion and dedication. She was the first lady engineer in her family, breaking barriers and setting a precedent for those who would come after her. Her academic prowess was recognized when she became an Anna University gold medalist, a testament to her relentless work ethic and undying curiosity. She was also widely admired for her unwavering dedication to her commitments, further showcasing her strength of character. Kala's legacy is a beacon of kindness and generosity shining brightly on her family, friends, and even those who were strangers. Her compassion knew no boundaries, and she was always the first to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. Her untimely departure from this world makes one believe that divine beings are so eager to call back the best among us to their kingdom. Indeed, a warm human being who filled the world with love and benevolence, Kala, has left an indelible mark on all of our hearts. Her life was a testament to the saying that it's not the years in life, but the life in the years that matter. Kala Gowrisankar lived a life filled with purpose, love, and kindness and her spirit will continue to guide us in our journey.
