We regret to inform our readers that Shri Nagesh Atmaram Sawant, Ex-Editor of this magazine expired at Nagpur on Thursday, the 8th January 1976. He edited this magazine in its infancy and was also a trustee of the Sai Baba Sansthan of Shirdi. Due to old age he was not keeping well. One devotee therefore advised him to come to stay at Shirdi in the holy company of Shri Sai Baba. Shri Sawant accordingly went to Shirdi and had marked improvement in his health. However, in December last he went to his son at Nagpur and on the 15th of December 1975 he fell down in the bath room. He was imme¬diately admitted to a private hospital for treatment; but he start¬ed sinking day by day and ultimately he left this world on the 8th of January 1976 at the mature age of 81 years.
Shri Sawant was humble and industrious. He was a sincere devotee of Shri Sai Baba. Hence he undertook the task of editing this magazine and shouldered it successfully. With his death a staunch Sai devotee has left this world to achieve lasting peace. We mourn the irreparable loss to his family and extend our sympathy to them. May his soul rest in peace. —Editor
