I am very sad to hear about the passing of Edgar. For all his strong views and toughness he was generous at heart, and had a broadness of vision that is not very common among Goans of his generation. May he reside happily in the memories of those of us who knew him in person, or like me, unfortunately, only in cyberspace.
