To enter into the details of their lives would be too long, but the group does represent characteristics that are worthy of emphasis:
If we look at the ages of the brothers, we find that the youngest brother was aged 19, while the oldest brother was aged 62. Between these ages there were sixteen brothers in their twenties, eleven brothers in their thirties, eleven brothers in their forties and six brothers in their fifties. This was a young group that was martyred.

The biographical pages devoted to them in the Informatio are in general full of praise. Before death and martyrdom, we tend to remember the good aspects of a person. Here, however, we have a group who knew for five years they were heading for the final trial of martyrdom and during this time they were guided by superiors who made them aware of this and created a climate of generosity and piety to prepare their hearts to accept and even desire this sacrifice.

All did not have the makings of a saint: one brother was too melancholic and taciturn, another too authoritarian in his positions of responsibility, one young brother had found a fiancé but had said yes to his Provincial for going on the Cabo San Agustin… In their human frailty, their choice was for Christ.

The reading of these biographies gives rise to great admiration due to the quality of their lives rather than their tragic deaths. Some were true intellectuals, others expert teachers who were close to young people, others in their leadership roles were able to marry the art of organisation with paternal care and those employed in manual work were capable of rendering great service to others that was always done willingly and joyfully. There were poets, and others with the kindest of hearts, like the brother at las Avellanes who was responsible for welcoming the poor and always made sure that he added a glass of wine with the meal that he offered them.
All were wholeheartedly devoted to the Mother of the Lord and led simple and discreet Marist lives. We, as a family, can be truly proud of these brothers. We can ask them to intercede for us so that our hearts may be open to the generosity that God is asking of us today.

This prayer-poem that was composed by one of these brothers, a cry from the heart, may also be the prayer that joins us all together in fraternity.
