Dear Tino, I am a Remedios from Tabravaddo, residing in Bombay since 1946. I am curious to know which R. family your Mum hails from. As for myself, my father was Bernardo who died in Bombay. I had an Uncle Priest, Pe Victor who died in Pamjim Hospital and was buried in Saligao. I am Jose and my wife is Aida from S. Matias Very eager to hear from you. Jose
