    Fr. Valie hailed from a humble and devout family of Bajpe He was senior to me in the high school by three years. However, we were in the Alter Boys Sodality When he decided to join the Seminary it was no surprise for me because had had all the qualities to become a good priest. And he became a good priest. He lived a simple but holy life. Where ever he served the parishioners loved him. He is a relation of my wife. We will miss him. May God grant him eternal rest.
