"Anna" as we called him, was a fatherly figure to me, and it is a personal loss.
Umesh Kamat (1939-2011)
Anna was there when I was admitted to primary school (he was my guardian, and signed all my progress reports), he was there for my ordaining ceremony, and he was with me when I graduated from Engineering school and had rejoiced when I found my first employment. Even my wife's mangalasutra was given by him. Anna introduced me to stock market and took me to places just like he did for his children.
