Early life

He was the Archbishop of Montevideo from 4 December 1998 till 11 February 2014.[1] Previously he served as Bishop of Melo.[1]

In September 2013 he tendered his resignation to Pope Francis, due to age reasons.[2] He was succeeded by the former Auxiliary Bishop of Montevideo, Daniel Sturla.[3]
