In Memory of Richie – The 25th death anniversary of Richie Fernando SJ

Three of the members of the Jesuit Mission in Cambodia share their memories about Richie.

Filipino Jesuit scholastic Richard “Richie” Fernando, SJ was a regent in Banteay Prieb, the Jesuit vocational training center for people with disabilities. In October 1996, he was killed by an explosion of a grenade brought by an emotionally distraught student. His body had shielded the student and the other students from the blast. In the memory of Richie, the newsletter of Jesuit Mission in Cambodia is named after him.
