Dear Aunty Barbara, Kamini, Anjali and Nandita,
On behalf of Dad ( Stany Menezes), my sisters, Maryanne ( Mendonca) , Denise ( Palat) and myself, we offer you our deepest sympathies at the passing away of Uncle Irwin and wish to pay tribute to the wonderful family friend he has been to us. Thanks for giving us the opportunity to ‘attend’ Uncle Irwin’s funeral service, though it was only Maryanne and Dad who could attend it live. It was indeed a beautiful service. Though parting with a loved one is always very sad and heartbreaking, it was the celebration of Uncle’s life that touched us all, especially the eulogies of Aunty Annette and Nandita.
We have cherished memories of Uncle Irwin, Aunty Barbara and the three ‘princesses’ right from our Calcutta days. As time went on and they moved to Vizak and Bombay we still kept in touch and this continued even after they finally returned to Mangalore permanently- the bonds of friendship have stood the test of time.
Uncle Irwin was always quiet and unassuming and so gentle in all his ways. Wish it were possible to have borrowed those ‘genes’! As was said at his funeral service, ‘ He has fought the good fight’ all through his life not the least during his ill health in recent years, which robbed him of his independence. As Kamini, Anjali and Nandita and of course Jaytirth and Nayantara, now take up the baton after him, they will be be the solace and support for Aunty Barbara and see that Uncle’s legacy lives on. May his soul rest in peace.
With love and prayers, Yours in sorrow

My deepest condolences to you Auntie Barbara, Anjali, Nandita, Kamini and children, for the loss of Uncle Irwin. I know you will feel his loss tremendously for a long time. He was a wonderful man, a kind and loving father, husband, uncle and friend. We hadn't met for a very long time until his birthday last year when I attended his birthday zoom call! It was so great to see him happy and smiling, just as I remembered all those years ago! My condolences also to Auntie Eva, Christabel, Gerard and Rohan for their loss. I wish I could have been there in person, but you were in my thoughts and prayers throughout the day. May the love of all your family comfort you at this sad time. God bless you all. Rest in God's peace, Uncle Irwin.

Heartfelt Condolences on the sad demise of my dearest Uncle Irwin, an iconic figure of the Gonsalves family. A man who made a name for himself in the banking field just like my dear departed Dad. A man I admired for his sound banking / worldly knowledge. A soft-spoken man with a towering personality and a win you over smile. Enjoyed my time spent with him during my summer holiday visits to Mangalore. Uncle you have gone to your eternal abode but your memories will stay forever. Rest in peace dear Uncle Irwin.💐🙏

Our dearest Barbara, Anjali, Kamini and Viju, Nandita and Urban, Jaitirth and Nayantara,

Deeply saddened by the passing of Irwin - a gentleman in every sense of the word. Handsome, intelligent, warm, kind and genteel. One of the finest in our community. Irwin epitomized the difference between good and great. The kind of greatness every human being should aspire to. So many of his traits and yours, Barbara, are seen in your three lovely girls. A wonderful legacy indeed.

Irwin was blessed in each of you and the love and caring you lavished him with. He will now take care of you in spirit. Each time you glance at his calm and classy countenance, may it remind you of the good times you've shared, all that he meant to you as husband, father and grandfather and make your hearts smile and your sorrow abate.

Loads of love as we share your grief in spirit, thought and prayer,
Raju and Ashu

What a nice man. When I last spoke with him for about 40 mins in July 2014 after the passing of my beloved Mum . I felt peace. It seemed he was one of the few people who understood my grief at that time. Unfortunately circumstances kept us apart.

My sincere condolemces to his closest family. for the loss of a decent man who lived a relatively long life.

Dear Barbara, Kamini, Anjali and Nandita, Please accept my HEARTFELT SYMPATHIES on the passing of dear Irwin. May he rest in peace!
I attended his wedding to Barbara in 1962 and then met him again in 1969 In Calcutta where he was an executive in the HSBC. Irwin was a gentleman and one who was very much on the level on all matters; very respectful and friendly!
He will be missed!
