[INDOLOGY] PASSING> Dr Carmen Dragonetti (1937-2018)

[Madhav Deshpande]

Sorry to hear about the passing of Dr. Carmen Dragonetti.  She and her
husband Dr. Tola had visited the University of Michigan a few times and
were friends with my late colleague Prof. Luis Gomez.  Now, sadly all three
are gone.
