May 19, 2009: This morning, CARS received the sad news that a long time ralliest, Francisco Pereira, passed away this morning in Portugal from cancer.
Terry had become aware that Francisco had been diagnosed with neo plazias (cancer masses) in his mid section. Francisco did not want the sport to know he was ill and so we are sure this news will come as a shock to very many people in this sport who knew him. Francisco’s wishes were for cremation and that his ashes be spread in the ocean. At this point in time, we have no other details on any planned arrangements or services back here in Canada.
He was only 48. He has left behind a daughter in grade 12.
