This was a marvelous idea indeed to recite poetry at the graveside as well as at the courtyard in a simple ting and honor a person who has left this world some time ago. This is one way to express our sense of appreciation on behalf of a departed person and make his family consoled that we have never forgotten the person, but we are here to reflect upon his past good deeds and offer him the right tribute. Whoever came up with this idea need be complemented because there is so much of past legacy of a departed soul that we can bring back to life and make all others who are alive to feel that they too can be recognized after death if they have proven to be good for themselves and many others that are left behind. Offering tributes after death, regardless of the time is a fine way to pay homage to so many that have gone for their heavenly rewards, and share all our thoughts and feelings with many others that are alive, so that thru these kind gestures many others can follow the path of righteousness and give the very best towards humanity. Cemetaries and graveyards in America are some of the finest spots of attraction. They are kept so well landscaped and so well maintained so that each and every grave can be identified even from a distance. Each and every grave is well marked, and whether it is on a Mother's Day or Father's Day, or even the Memorial Day, the graveyards are well decorated with flowers, and the deceased are well remembered. Funeral Homes and Graveyard maintenance and upkeep is a big industry in America. May Shriman A. T. Lobo rest in peace, and let his memory and all his contributions towards life be remembered.

A nice programme and a fitting tribute to A T Lobo, one of the great Konkani writers. He was a sentimental poet, philosophical novelist and a realistic dramatist, it was a rare blend. If he were in some other language, people would have built literary monuments in his name. In the recent past A T Lobo's family has been organising programmes in his memory through A T Lobo Foundation. This year Kavita trust has joined with them to organise this beautiful programme. Kavita trust has been doing lot of good programmes under the leadership of a great poet our times, Melwyn Rodrigues and this programme is really a rare one. By remembering and respecting the writers like A T Lobo, we are respecting and honouring our mother tongue. All the best Kavita trust and AT Lobo foundation.
