Folks, I have always felt that Mario was of the truly great cartoonists of India. I used to religiously wait for the weekly "Illustrated" to arrive at the Dar es Salaam Institute library in the 1960's and 1970's.  At the time, I was hoping that Mario Miranda was a Goan and not someones pen name.

The news of Mario's exit from our midst is a sad loss to Goans the world over. He could fill our 'duller' moments with joy and laughter through his down-to-earth cartoons. Goa has lost a great son and we all mourn his loss. Our condolences to his family and friends. Mervyn Maciel ---
