I heard with great sadness of the death of Stanislite and Olympic Hockey goalkeeper Leo Pinto. Leo Pinto graduated from St. Stanislaus in 1932.
His funeral was held in Bandra on 11th August 2010 at St. Francis of Assissi Church. He was buried at St. Peter's Sea Side Cemetary.
May he rest in Peace.

Another visit another excuse to meet
Submitted by Gerry Mascarenhas on July 17, 2010 - 5:12pm.Francis D'silva and Michael Baretto are visiting Mumbai from Norway and it was yet another excuse for Class of 1977 and Junior College 1979 to meet over at Bandra Gym.
While we had a great time we missed Mike Baretto who did not show up. The surprise was meeting with Milton D'silva. At the end of the evening Neale was threatening to start singing the School Anthem, Peter Tool forgot he was Peter Tool and mentioned he knew Peter Tool...go figure that one :) and ended up in Chembur dropping off Francis there with Christopher and Errol for company. I was too chicken to travel at that time of the morning with three "boys" in high spirits with Peter at the wheel. yes it was a real happy time. George Matthew was meeting a friend as the night was still young. Me, I hit the sack, I must be really getting old.
