What can i say Jasu your journey in this world has come to an abrupt end and this has come to me as a complete shock.  Remembering today the good old years in Bastora where you and all my brothers used to play football in the field along with your middle brother Vitorin until the sun went down.  I used to see you when you rode your bike past my house or sometimes visiting my place to see my brothers. No doubt you will be missed but you will have plenty to talk with them now as my brothers are all up there and that includes your mum and dad. 

I know this is only a temporary separation as we all have to go one day from this world.

May you now rest in peace, you've always worked hard to make sure that your family is comfortable.  They will always remember you for this.

To the family of Jasu.. please be strong, he is with the angels and you will meet him again one day.

Love and Respect
From your neighbour in Xell

Johnson/Agnelo and Francis's sister..(late)

It was an honour to stand shoulder to shoulder next to you, facing countless battles together.  A true warrior in life who never let his brothers down. Until we meet again in the ether - Rest well my friend 

Vaz
There are no words to describe your Kindness. It is truly our loss to see you go. I pray for your family and loved ones to find comfort in this difficult time.

Uncle Vaz,

If there ever was a man I could say had my back 100% , you were it. You always greeted me with a smile and treated me with respect. 

The world of security is a small one but I’ve always considered you to be a bright light amongst us. That light will be missed by all lucky enough to have truly known you for the genuine man you were. 

Rest peacefully sir. 



My Friend and coworker, VAZ. There are not enough good words in the dictionary to describe your kindness. Your presence will always be felt at St. Mike's in the best positive way. Sad to see you go so soon, the good ones always go first. I know your in heaven smiling down on us with your blessing. GOD BLESS.

Amedeo # 97

Vaz,
When I heard the news I was in disbelief! Such a kind caring man taken from us too soon! I will miss you as will the team at St. Mike's! 

My shifts will never be the same, walking the halls and reminiscing on all of the laughs we shared! 

I am truly honored to have gotten the chance to get to know you these last few years while working at St. Mike's!
We have all gained another Angel to watch over us! 

Until we meet again #50!
May you rest in peace Jacinto.

Goodbye Uncle Jasu..... 

I was completely frozen when my mom( his sister) told me that my uncle Jasu expired.  I never expected this to happen so early as he was well built, strong and had a heart of steel. But God had His plans for this kind hearted man. 

Only memories I have of him was from my childhood in the late 80's and early 90's in his home village in Goa. I remember once he came to pick me up from school, I was in 1st Standard (Grade). He was driving his Yezdi bike while I was sitting behind. In the middle of the drive back home while he was driving so fast, he shooked his bike in order to scare me. And it really scared me to death, and intensity of the scareness was such that I had to hold him so tight in order not to fall off from the bike. 
When we reached home, with bursting laughter he told the incident to our family members because he knew his strength was his forte......... 

Last conversation in person, I had with him was in November 2018 when he was down in Goa,  for a few minutes that lasted not so long because I was so confident that he would come back with his family next time to his home village in Goa. But that next time  was never going to happen as God destined him to His Heavenly Abode. 

I will still treasure you in my heart forever... 

Rest in Peace Uncle Jasu... 

Your Nephew, 
Andyson Kenrick Fernandes

I had the opportunity of working with Jacinto during most of his time with the Department of Security and Safety at St. Michael's Hospital.  Jacinto approached most situations with a quiet and and calm demeanour.  Jacinto was a very private person yet he always spoke lovingly about his sons and his wife.  While Jacinto's sudden passing has impacted the department it will take time for those of us who had a professional relationship with Jacinto, to heal.  There are moments when I think I've seen Jacinto walking down the hall or I've heard his voice only to realize that it's memories of Jacinto that are running through my mind.  I will miss Jacinto but know that he is where he was meant to be and that is watching over his family from above, encouraging everyone to carry on with life.  I will remember Jacinto...always.

Vaz, our last encounter, as with so many other encounters was as always, very positive and warm.  I will miss those times, since it was built on a mutual deep respect and appreciation for each another.  The last one especially, will always be remembered, whereby we parted with an embrace and we both said "Luv ya Man" 

 Vaz, you "ARE" truly a special individual,  you may not be here with us physically, but you remain with us in so many other ways. Still,.... I am going to miss you.

"Luv ya Man"
Trevor (Delta One)

Goodbye my elder brother Jasu. You will be missed forever in our lives.
We were looking forward to meet each other and wanted to discuss lots of things.
Was devastated and very sadden upon hearing your sad demise, especially for not meeting you for the last 26 years. You will always be in our prayers.
May your soul rest in peace.
From,
Caitan Vaz - Younger Brother.


I was fortunate enough to meet you in September 2019, to have spent quality time with you and to be a part of your happiness. I still remember the day you and Aunt Clothilda came to pick me and Delsy and took us to your house for Lunch (2/9/19 12pm ) we really had a great time I'm sure you did to. We are Grateful to receive your blessings personally.
Again we met on Friday 6th September 2019 we stayed at your place we spoke so much on that night I still remember we were awake till 2am just talking with each other. 

 Your 60th birthday will be one the most memorable days of my life. We laughed, shared stories and spoke our hearts. You took us all the way to St Michael's Hospital to show where you work at 1030pm and then you dropped us home that was the last time I saw you. The memories are still fresh for me.

I can still remember how happy you were and how you wanted me to stay and not go. 🥺 The best part of that night will remain in our hearts forever.

 You desperately wanted me to move to Canada and how you almost convinced me to. I feel so happy to have spent the most happening moment of your life with you. Your life stories will keep me motivated and I can proudly say that my Uncle Jasu was a strong, brave, honest and a very loving person. Sad that I couldn't spend much time with you all these years but I'm glad that you waited for me before you left. Your blessings are with me forever and memories will be cherished for life. Will miss you. Rest in peace Jasu.

RIP Uncle Jasu(fondly called by all the family members) 

I still remember a childhood memory (which I still narrate to my family out here) of the day you left to Canada when I was a child back then in the early 90's. I was made to believe that I have passport and can travel with you to Canada. In reality it was a "ration card" an Indian government identity(silly me). Obviously I couldn't travel with you and I cried bitterly(my dad lost a few hair that day) when I came to know I wasn't going with you. 

Time flies. I am glad that I met you the last time you came to Goa in November 2018 and was able to introduce you to my husband. Still remember the compliment you gave me as we were leaving the house, you kept your hand on my shoulder, looked straight into my eyes and said "are those eyes natural? " "You have very beautiful eyes" something that will forever remain as a last memory of you as we said goodbye. 

May your soul rest in peace Uncle. 

Heartfelt condolences to Aunt Clothilda, Jason, Jackson and Johann. 

Your Niece, 
Andrea Fernandes



Good Bye........ My Loving Brother.... 

We were extremely shocked and sad to hear about the sudden demise of my loving brother Jacinto Vaz. It is not easy for a sister to bear the loss of her loving brother who spent her childhood and teenage days along with him around. 

God give us the strength nd courage to bear this irreparable loss... 

Enternal rest grant unto him oh Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him... AMEN... 

May his soul rest in peace. 

Good bye my loving Brother.. JACINTO VAZ

Loving Sister,

SWEET MEMORIES WITH MY LOVING BROTHER JACINTO. 

Good Bye Jacinto!  My Dearest Brother and Friend.

We met last November after ages in the home we grew, 
We lost track of time discussing our dreams and childhood too, 
You are still alive in my heart and memories,
Although you have departed so untimely.

You have touched our lives, you have taken care of us,
Though an elder brother you were like a father figure to us,
We are grateful to you for all your love and sacrifices,
You were the pillar of  strength to our family.

I remember the days when we would ride the bicycle to school,
It was a ten kilometer ride and a rough route,
You were a keen sportsman and your strength was your armour,
You would flex your muscles with pride and humour.

Oft late we spoke so much and I promised to visit you,
You said you were looking forward to my visit too,
We were so excited planning the trip,
But destiny's plan skipped my heartbeat.

Rest in peace my Brother, till we meet again,
My deepest condolences to your loving family and friends,
You will be missed forever daily & dearly,
With Love, Respect, and Admiration, I bid Adieus to thee.

Heartfelt Sympathies,
 
Victorino Vaz


My deepest condolences to his family, and my thoughts and prayers are with you. I worked with Vaz at TEGH and remember how he would call my name out loud when he came around for patrol on my floor, I would do the same in return, we would chit chat a few minutes, and then he'd be on his way to continue his duty. Always checking in always smiling, always an ear to listen, always there to support, so dedicated. His kind nature is missed.

Dear Vaz & Family,
I have only known you for a little while but from what I have gathered you were a truly great person. You were so very proud of your family. Your intentions were always good. I am proud to have called you friend. God bless you and your family. 

A man of good character! 
Jacinto Vaz, what a humble, family focused individual. He walked his talk and did it well. I am blessed to have known him for approximately one year as we worked together at St. Michael's Hospital especially in the ER department. We shared many engaging conversations on relevant subjects. One thing about Mr.  Vaz was he never, ever looked down on anyone! He was an amazing listener! And always treated everyone with respect regardless of where they came from and what position in life they found themself in. 
I only heard of his passing yesterday and it stunned me. As he was an awesome human being. 
I want to offer my condolences to his entire family at this time. May you all be comforted by the fact that he lived out his life serving others and impacting others in a positive manner. He was not a selfish individual. Your family is in my prayers as you deal with the HUGE void left behind. May his lifes journey continue to inspire others to live the same way with others! May his soul rest in peace. Samuel Coleman - Registration Clerk at St. Michael's ER Department. 


Good-Bye My Loving Bil Jacinto

It was just last November (2018),
When we met and spoke for hours,
Only destiny knew the clock was ticking,
I wish I knew it was our last meeting.

I will always revere you as a hard-working man,
Who was responsible till the very end,
How I wish you would retire and enjoy leisure,
And we speak our hearts and enjoy the Indian summer.

You were so devoted to God, work and family,
Your technical knowledge just amazed me,
May God comfort your loving wife and family,
You are dearly missed while we complete our earthly journey.

God! Be kind to our Jacinto and grant his soul eternal rest. 
Please accept him in paradise without much test,
May he be our family Angel👼and protect us,
May we feel his love always surround us.

Heartfelt sympathies & Prayers,
Shirley


Sweet and kind Vaz, 

My heart feels heavy to hear the news of your passing. I will always remember your kind voice and the smile on your face  and your willingness to help no matter how stressful the situation in  ED was.

You are too young to be gone so soon. Till we meet again, Rest In Peace my friend. 
Kassaye 

Saddened to know that you're no more with us, Uncle Jasu. Met you for some time not long ago, but you left me with memories to cherish for a lifetime. Glad that I celebrated your last birthday with you. In the recent years, no one gave me as much love as you did in those few moments spent together. Your inspiring stories and words of advice are going to take me a long way. You not just died but lived a life like none other. You were an amazing person with a string personality. You stood for yourself, worked hard and never gave up. Your blessings mean a lot. How I wish you could live a little longer. You don't really like being in photographs but I have a picture with you.😭  RIP Uncle Jasu. 

Mr. Vaz was an awesome man. He always made me feel welcome in his house. He had a big heart full of love and kindness. It is very sad to see him go so early. 
I will miss him greatly, and I will miss hearing him say loudly "Demetre" every time I came over his house.

Sincerely and with love, 

Dimitri Kounine. 



Vaz, I was in disbelief to hear about your passing and wanted you and your family to know that you will never be forgotten and will always have a place in our hearts 

Eh... 50 you will be missed!!!!

Vaz, my friend/coworker who was always smiling and laughing.  I will always cherish the times we would have coffee together at work  and have wonderful conversations. The comfort of having a friend may be taken away, but not that of having had one. My deepest sympathy to your wife and your family. I will truly miss you my friend, Vaz #50.


I am sad to hear of Vaz' passing.  I remember him for being a kind, reasonable and dependable person.  

I worked with VAz at TEGH. He was truly a sweet human being. He will be dearly missed. May he rest in peace. 

Dear Friend and co-worker we got so close on the last months... I never knew that you will leave us so soon ....  Vaz rest in peace ... we will keep the good memories and always remember you with Joy.

Rest In Peace Vas  !  I will always remember your kindness and your smile. You will be missed. My condolences to the family. 

Vaz. My happy, always smiling, always loving friend. All our many chats, I could never forget. Thank you for embracing me always as a valued member of the team. Always finding ways to make you laugh (like rubbing your head). You called to talk to me on Friday. I wish I kept you on the phone longer. Thank you teaching me humility. Thank you for all your many words of wisdom. Thank you for being my team meeting buddy in the mornings. Thank you for all your assistance on the endless calls we had. Thanks for sharing lunch. All my love to your family. We lost a strong one. I'll miss you forever Mr. Vaz..#50.

Vaz, my friend. You were more than a co worker. You were a great friend who will be missed.  Always smiling,  always willing to help, I was so happy to see you finally join A Platoon. You, sharing  your dinner with me,  and I would always ask you to adopt me, so I could have this delicious meal every day. 
Coming in to work Monday and knowing you wouldn't be there was difficult and Sad, but thinking of you and all our memories put a smile on my face.  
My Sincere Condolences to the Vaz Family.  Til we meet again my friend, RIP.  Heaven has gained another Angel. 
St Michaels Hospital will never be the same - 50 


I Would Like To Send My Deepest Condolences To The Family Of The Late Jacinto Vaz
I  Work At St. Michael's Hospital And Have Seen Vaz Many A Times Walking Through The Hospital Always Kind And Very Pleasant.

I worked with Vaz at Toronto East General hospital for almost 10 years. We were partners for probably close to 7 years.  He wasn’t jsut my co- worker, he was my friend.  We always had
Late night chats  and I always made
Him laugh. His laugh was contagious. I remember one day I made
Him laugh so hard tears were
Coming from his eyes.  He will be missed. But I will always remember him.  I put a picture of him and I from 2015. I remember this day and always will. 

RIP Vaz
