He was born in Manila, Philippines on January 11, 1964. He entered the Congregation in Manila on May 2, 1981, and was admitted to the novitiate on June 1, 1983. He made his first profession on June 1, 1984, and the perpetual profession on June 1, 1990. In 1992, as a deacon, he spent several months as an educator in Aluva (India). On June 11, 1994, he was ordained priest at the Parish of Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary in Parañaque.
He spent the first years of his apostolate, engaged in formation, first in the Center of Studies in Manila and then in the Seminary in Cebu. From 2000 to 2004, he worked in our parish of Parañaque and, in the two years that followed, at the St. Anthony's Boys Village in Silang. From 2007 to 2014, he was Councilor and Treasurer of the Government of the Circumscription. From 2008 onwards, he was delegated by the Major Superior to start and manage the Rogationist College-Parañaque and the Rogate Printing Press.
In mid-2017, he began to experience heart problems and dizziness. From the analysis carried out, he was diagnosed to have "multiple myeloma", a type of blood cancer, particularly painful, which, in fact, was incurable. In the progress of the illness, which he endured with a serene fortitude, he was accompanied by the closeness of the confreres and his relatives. He died on June 6, 2018, at San Juan De Dios Hospital in Pasay. His remains were buried in our Cemetery in Paranaque.
Fr. Ravezza was faithful to the commitments of religious life and the priesthood. We recall his joviality, enthusiasm, attention to the confreres, the zeal in the field of formation and attention to the poor.
