We were very sorry to hear of the sad demise of Mr. Edwin Saldanha. His passing away will be a great loss to his children & their respective families (Yvette, Kevin, Patsy, Jenny & Daphne) and we pray that God gives them the strength to bear their loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Saldanha family for the eternal repose of his soul.

We knew Mr. Saldanha quite well, Luwell because of his association with St. Britto. I, because of my chatting to him at Peggy's Corner whilst waiting for the Mapusa bus to go my way. At first glance, he seemed stern, ... the teacher's quiet looks & dignified aura,... but on chatting with him, I changed my mind.... I found him to be a very pleasant, kind & knowledgeable gentleman. Also saw his strength & that of Yvette when the family needed them most at the time of Patsy's ordeal. Wish I had known about his winemaking abilities earlier, only got to know about this on reading Rico's article some time ago. I loved homemade wines & have seen our friends make the same. Oh well, it's too late now as I am no longer able to taste nor drink wine. But I'm sure Mr. Saldanha has written down the recipe somewhere for others to follow ...as I recall, isnt there some book written?

Once again, we convey our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved family. May his soul rest in peace.


Annette, Luwell & Ashley
