Searching for the entire family living in Richmond Town, as we would meet them at the Bangalore Club (swimming, library, parties), Bowring Institute, BLT plays, MEG Cinema - Sunday night etc. Maria was a beauty Queen. David played tennis with my elder brother Vinod studying at Bishop Cottons. While the Aquinos were at St Josephs European School with the D'Souza family: Ironically brothers also named John, David. Maria was @ Sacred Hearts School with Prudence. All Senior to us. Where are they now? I last met Mrs Aquino at St Patrick's Church, Residency road, a Wednesday evening for the Mass and the Our Lady of Perpetual Succourance Prayer session. Would like to connect with them asap. My husband Fernando Poletti an Italian has been so intrigued about them and is on a mission for the last 3 decades during his stay in Bangalore to track them down as Aquino is a typical Italian surname albeit these Aquinos are Portughese apparently. Please provide me some contact to them. Thank you. Indira Shastri in Poletti.
