Fr Hilario Fernandes SJ, aged 93 with 72 fruitful years in the Society of Jesus went to his eternal abode around 8.45 PM on 10 May 2024 at Mount St Joseph, Bengaluru.
Fr Hilario was truly a man of the heart because of which he touched the hearts and lives of so many Jesuits, religious and the laity. He was a formator both in the province and in Singapore and his forte was Cura personalis. He came across to one and all as a perfect gentleman: gentle, decent, peaceful, and loath to hurt anyone, not even the most difficult people. His love for the Society of Jesus, his knowledge and appreciation of Ignatian Spirituality, his wide general knowledge and his rich repertoire of humorous anecdotes made him a much sought-after and well-appreciated Jesuit. His love of books, his artistic temperament and his love for literature both secular and spiritual had been important factors in making him a well-integrated Jesuit. During his earthly sojourn he shared passionately his companionship with the Lord and may he now in his heavenly sojourn enjoy the eternal companionship of his Master and Lord.
