Simple sketch of a great Salesian


Fr. Francesco Maraccani (1936-2020) a great Salesian, passed away today to the Salesian garden with serenity. We pray for his eternal rest. After a 83 years of hardworking life, 66 years as professed Salesian and 53 years as Salesian priest. He was an IT expert, principal of DB Technical institute in Brescia (1967-1979), as former provincial of Verona (Italy), Secretary General (1984-2002) and finally as Procurator General (2002-2015), serving for long years in the General House until few months ago (final illness - UPS infirmary).
