Not sure if this has been posted under another topic but I understand that Dr Elio Coelho who practised as a lawyer in Carvoeiro sadly died two days ago aged just 39. Some members may know him.

A nice genuine bloke he leaves a wife and 3 young children I believe.

R.I.P.

Whether you know him or not, this is sad news indeed and so young...

Biffa - Was Elio a relative of Idalio's ?

That is such sad news, for one so young with a young family and a wife. Don't think I knew him but such a sad thing to happen.

Dear dear dear, so sad. May he rest in peace. I'm the same age myself and it brings it home to you "we are but a moment in time" My brother left this world at the same age and I saw what it did to his family. God love them all.

My younger brother died in 1991 in his early thirties. I was devastated. He left a wife and a young son. My heart goes out to his family - I know how they feel.

Yes.

We were told that he died of cancer.
The memorial service is today, I think.

May he rest in peace.

Very sad indeed especially when there are youngters left behind. Puts many other problems firmly into perspective when you hear of events such as these.

Oh my goodness. He is our lawyer! We only spoke to him last week and he said he was in hospital having treatment for cancer but we never realised it was so serious! That is such sad news. He was a lovely man.
