Dear Mr Goss Sir
Dear Ma’am

I was but five years old when I entered Linlithgow in 1961..
Homesick and missing my Mum ( I guess more than my Father) You Ma’am looked after me and us Lilliputs like a true Mum…
You may not remember but both Sir and you visited my parents one evening in Calcutta during our Christmas Holidays 1961/1962… I was fast asleep tucked under my quilt in Kidderpore( Nimak Mahal Road – Hooghly Pilot Residences) but nonetheless I had insisted when the two of you visit I must be woken up ! I was Blessed just as so many of us who witnessed your true pastoral care.. Mr Goss was always BRILLIANT! This message is for both of you. May you both continue on your lives journey .. Happy & Content ! Much Love & Regards, Vivek Bonnie BHASIN Lefroy 1961-1970

How well I remember Mrs Goss.
Motherly and so very caring.
Ma’am, just want to thank you for seeing me the other tykes like me through my first two years (59/60) in your care.

[…] However the overall ambience was of a rather sombre note and for some reason ( that I unfortunately cannot not point out), the mood was low. I also believe the turnout expected was well below the minimum. Many Regular Old Cottonians residing in Delhi did not bother to attend. A few of the younger OCs did show up but as I repeat the air of joyful celebration of the OCA and our Alma Mater was definitely lacking. Possibly it could have been a low information flow locally, though the webmaster did post the same on the website a few weeks in advance. […]
