I was probably in class seven, year was 1967-68. There used to be football matches and in every match the hero was Sylvester Gomes. He used to play in forward position and would never miss a chance to make a goal. He was a great athlete with great stamina. He was my ideal. However it requires a different devotion and sincerity to make a football player , which we lacked.
However I came to know that at the behest of Sylvester the 1968 batch SPVians had joined the Swaraswati Puja. My regards to the Sylversterda. I would like to get in touch with him and know more about him.
The second name that still rings a sweet memory is Shankerda he was a great singer. Songs by Shankerda was a must in any social function. He was liked by everyone . During the 1965 war, desh bhakti geets like kadam kadam baraye ja still ring in my ears. Any body knows his whereabouts. My regards and best wishes for both of them.
