You have however the satisfaction of having done very well indeed and it is matter legitimate pride for us Mangies to have had such person of repute at the center. May you retirement be an enjoyable one but may you continue to serve the country and the people in your own way. Irene joins me in sending our love and good wishes to you. Uncle Joe. From: "sawan dutta" New Delhi/ India Date: 27 October 2004 16:34 maxie....that was so moving! specially the beginning bit about the uniform etc.....really really moving.... hmmmmmmm....must be quite....sad, no, in a way? After so many years of being associated with something? so hey, your birthday must be around the corner....when is it???? thanks for sharing that with me. a big hug, ….sawan From: "neirenearathi ire" New Delhi/ India Date: 27 October 2004 17:34 My dear uncle, (I received this mesg from Tubu as well this afternoon). Although you've written it down so well I did not enjoy reading it ....I was not happy about your adieu to this profession. However, retirement from active service is not an end but a new beginning to a life where you decide and accomplish all that you've always wanted to but could not due to the busy work pressure/ schedule. May God shower you dear Uncle with Gud-health and cheer. And may you make more contributions to society than ever before. Please remember us. And you will always stay fresh in my heart because you decorated my wedding picture as best as only a father can do....Love you Uncle. Can I have your address which I assume is Gurgoan......Cheers, Arathi From: pavan varma London, UK Sent: Wednesday, October 27, 2004 5:43 PM dear maxie, good innings, and an even better post innings. enjoy the freedom, and write your memoirs! much love, pavan and renuka From: Pereira, Brian Boston, USA Sent: Wednesday, October 27, 2004 6:17 PM Maxie, You have served well.

This must have been hard on you. As you suggested to me, I am suggesting this to you(You have the talent anyway! )- why dont you start publishing some really memorable experiences which impacted you- either personally or professionally. I am sure people would love reading it. Best of luck. Shashi From: F T R Colaso Bangalore, INDIA Sent: Wednesday, October 27, 2004 7:35 PM Dear Maxie, I just saw your farewell article. How the years pass by. Its almost 9 years since I retired but the time has flown by. Wish you all the best from Carmel, Anjali and me. Francis From: Dr. Anup K Pujari Bangalore, INDIA Sent: Wednesday, October 27, 2004 9:35 PM Can't believe that you would be retiring. Of course it was also in today's whispers. The write up is very well done. Thanks for sharing with me. Would you be coming back to Bangalore or staying at Delhi (or migrating to UK ?). Bye and best wishes. Dr. Anup K Pujari From: William & Agnes Gomes Omaha/USA Sent: Thursday, October 28, 2004 2:00 AM Dear Max, Congratulations! Time will pass even when you have time and everybody else is busy. This the reality of retirement. What are your long term plans. Keep in touch. I might be in Delhi at the end of Jan and hope we can have a leisurely meal. If you are visiting the US you are welcome here. This is a large country and I am in a rural area and the major air port is Omaha connected tot the international hubs of Chicago and, Minneapolis The driving time between Grand Island and Omaha is two and a quarter hours. I will be happy to buy your airline ticket to Omaha and drive you from Omaha to GO.I and back. Willie From: neena correa CANADA Sent: Thursday, October 28, 2004 7:21 AM Congratulations on your retirement !! I know it sounds ironic but you have put in a lot of energy and work and maybe it is now time to sit back and enjoy those laurels... I am sure the first few months are going to be tough. But look forward to some more writing. You do have a flair for it... All the best for whatever you endeavour. Tons of good wishes. Neena From: sharmila livingston JAPAN Sent: Thursday, October 28, 2004 7:28 AM And you thought I was young at 40. I was equally surprised to hear you are at the point of saying Farewell to your career. It was fun reading all about your police days. Ever thought of writing a book? God has raised you throughout your career, and you have been a blessing to each city you have been in, and to those you have befriended. A proverb from the Old Testament says " See a man skilled at his work, and he will serve before kings." Well, there may not be many kings in our day, but your skill has given you opportunity to serve before the equivalent in our generation. What next? More music? Do keep us posted. We would love to be in touch. Enjoy your family, your friends, some time to yourself after years of solid work. Lots of love, Sharmila for all of us Livingstons
