Dear Cedric and Debra

You will remember me when I introduce myself to you. My name is Santan De Mello, eldest brother of The De Mello Brothers. You will remember Remy and my Brother Jules perhaps too. I and my wife,Oomega, met you both in Toronto. Your Dad was an extraordinary gentle person . Your Mum was a sweet and gracious lady. She always made time to speak to me and she understood that she had to give up many hours of togetherness because of a musical husband. I know you will miss her love and caring always very intensely. I pray for courage and faith for you both to bear this sad loss. You can take comfort in the fact that your both parents will continue to look after you ever more strongly and that life will bring the joy and peace which will be yours for sure.
With love

Santan & Omega


WE had the pleasure of meeting you in Toronto.
