I received word this morning that rescue workers recovered the body of my friend Luis yesterday.
I went to facebook to write something for one of his daughters, and these two messages summed up the sad news.
“Your father is an inspiration for us all, a true hero; he served with passion and dedication to make the world a better place, all while being a loving father and husband and accomplish the mission of the UN. It's very rare that people will visit a troubled area such as Haiti, and your dad did it with honor and respect.”
“We remember him as deeply generous and loving, open and warm. We lifted our glasses to him this evening. He was a man of the highest caliber in devotion to family and indeed to humankind.”
Peace be with the da Costa family.
