Yesterday, news reached me of the sad demise of Toshifumi Goto on July 19,
at the age of 77. Severe ailments had impeded his life for some years, to
which he had finally to give in. He will be remembered as a good friend,
stern and successful in his persuit of classical Vedic studies in the vein
of his beloved teacher Karl Hoffmann. Our thoughts are with his wife,
Junko Sakamodo-Goto.
Junko printed RV 10.14.7-8 on her note, probably to express a last wish of
Toshi's himself. There is nothing more to add to that.
In sadness,
Harry Falk
