An important occasion for the community of Pau was celebrated last Sunday. In fact, the Holy Mass celebrated in the town church was also the occasion to celebrate the 101 years of Don Modesto Floris and 76 years of priesthood. A sober ceremony, in the presence of the relatives of the parish priest, the mayor Alessia Valente, the municipal administrators, the faithful of the communities in which he was parish priest and of the town, all of whom wanted to pay homage to the parish priest.
Don Modesto celebrated the mass together with the parish priest of Pau, Don Matteo, and, afterwards, organized a small refreshment in the parish hall.
"On behalf of myself and the community I represent - comments Mayor Alessia Valente - I want to express my thanks to Don Modesto for having demonstrated his attachment to this community on every occasion. As an administrator, I want to express my thanks to Don Modesto for the attention he has always paid to the work of the administration, from the smallest events to the most important decisions, and for never failing to provide words of appreciation and useful advice. A comfort that is always useful to those who decide to administer a community, even a small one. I hope that Don Modesto's wisdom can illuminate the path of this community for many more years to come".
