Straight forward and straight backed

He walked with a straight back with his moustache twirled upwards.

He pulled above his weight and rolled with the punches.

He never shied away from a challenge and was unafraid to challenge.

He was tough on the outside but a softie on the inside.

He was ever willing to assist anyone who sought help from him.

He loved life and lived it to the full...on his terms.

He is unfortunately no more with us.


We will always remember him for the joys he brought to us kids every Diwali; when he lit up the night with the sacks of fireworks.

Rest in peace Raymond Saldanha - may God keep you in his mercy and give your family the strength to cope with large void you have left.

Dearest Niru,

You have made my day so much brighter..........bin very down...since daddy's passing. It was so kind and sweet of you to take the time and write out that beautiful verse.

All Marinagarites are 'lucky' to have guys like you and Javie for taking that extra step and effort to make our memories so very special. Bless you.

Love and thanks A. Elaine, Ian, Kenny and Lizelle
