    Fr. Diamond, an Australian missionary to Northern India lived 64 years as a Salesian and 54 years as a
    committed and holy priest. As the only son in the family, he opted to be an ardent missionary to India
    and the Salesian Provinces of Kolkata and New Delhi have been the greater beneficiaries of his love
    and dedication. We love him and miss him greatly. May God reward him with the heavenly inheritance!
