Living in Pakistan I only came to know about the sad passing away of Farrokh Jijina when reading condolence messages under "Kind Friend" in April 7-April 20, 2025 issue.

Only one time he wrote to me requesting information on Girl Guide activities in Pakistan, if we had any. Our Parsi Girls School provided the details and a line I had casually mentioned in my email to Mr Jijina was also included in his write up.Spoke much about his inclusive warm-hearted nature. Garothman Behst to his gentle soul.
