It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Valentin-Zoltán (Bálint) Puskás KM.

Regarding his passing, the Ambassador of the Order of Malta to Romania, HE Roberto Musneci, stated “I express the sincere condolences on behalf of the whole Order to the family of our brethren, who returned to the House of the Father last night.” The Ambassador added, “Balint was an outstanding Knight of our Order, as well as the Romanian Association and the Relief Corps in Romania. A former member of the Romanian Constitutional Court, he put his experience, passion, calmness and above all wisdom, at the service of our mission.”

Ambassador Musneci declared, “I will personally miss his quiet, soft-spoken, but wise comments and recommendations that helped all of us to find not only technical solutions but, more importantly, to regain the spirit of brotherhood at the base of our activities. We will all deeply miss him.”
