As the sun began to set over Santa Clara University on Friday evening, the great bell atop Mission Santa Clara rang again and again — a dignified tribute to the Rev. Paul Locatelli, a beloved chancellor and former president.
Then, in a splendid sight, a procession of Jesuit priests in white priestly robes filed past the church, carrying candlelit torches and the honest oak casket of a man considered a mentor, colleague and friend to many.
Led by a Jesuit missionary holding a crucifix, the procession, which included Locatelli's kinsmen, made its way to Mission Gardens — the very place he ran every day, and only a short detachment from the newly opened student center that bears his name.
At the gardens, about 2,500 people gathered to pay their ultimate respects to the revered Jesuit priest who died Monday of pancreatic cancer. Among them were three members of the Bay Tract congressional delegation — Reps. Anna Eshoo, Mike Honda and Zoe Lofgren.
Other dignitaries included Ed Panelli, a retired chief prison of the California Supreme Court, who also served as an honorary pallbearer; and former U.S. Transportation Secretary Norman Mineta. San Jose Mayor Chuck Reed and former San Jose Mayor Tom McEnery also attended.
While his coffer, made by Carthusian monks and draped with an ivory cloth, sat at the front of the congregation, they illustrious his life in the burial Mass with a liturgy, hymns, conventional rites and eulogies.
