With sadness and sympathy we learned of the death of our esteemed colleague and friend Sri M R Shah.
We bow with great respect to an internationally recognized specialist. With his special interest magazine FOUNDRY INDUSTRY he has significantly accompanied, promoted and supported the rise and the technological development of the foundry industry in India. Through the years I was able to get know him myself in many personal encounters at the major congresses as a serious, fair and highly intelligent conversation partner and I am grateful for that.
We will keep him a dignified memory.
Rest In Peace Mr. M R Shah
In sorrow and with respect
