Off and on, I have been a journalist for most of my life, in India and here in
the USA; have worked for just about every newspaper worth the name in Mumbai, and for
the New York Times in New York. In a career that now spans 56 years, it stands to
reason that I have come across many journalists whom I learned to respect and admire.
Fred Noronha is one of them. He is articulate in the way he writes, generous and
sharing with his colleagues, brilliant in the reach of his mind. Too bad that some of
the time he would normally have devoted to his constructive work has lately been
pre-empted by individuals who have been sniping at him.
Fred will keep growing in stature over the years, and will be remembered long
after his would-be detractors are forgotten. I salute you, Fred, as countless others
do.
