The sudden death of Castro Zangina –Tong was received with shock and grief.

This is because, Castro, as he was affec­tionately called, was a staff of the New Times Corporation, Accra, who suffered a terrible loss of his beloved wife, barely four months ago.

When I spoke to console him on air after the late wife’s funeral, he thanked me and said only God could explain what happened.

Consequently, I was shocked to the marrow when this time, I had the bad news again of our beloved friend and a diligent worker, passing on without hearing of his indisposition.

Indeed we are living in a world of mysteries.

Castro and his be­loved wife, Comfort Es­suman Tsibu Awoo, had within a short period of time left behind their two children to become orphans.

The situation is too saddening and unbear­able. May I seize this opportunity to express my profound condolence to cherished readers of both the Ghanaian Times and The Spectator pub­lications, to the Manage­ment, staff, the children and family members of the late couple.

Readers, kindly permit me at this stage to use this medium to earnestly appeal to well-meaning people or the cherished readers of the two sister news­papers to come to the aid of the orphans of the deceased couple, so that they do not become too sad in life.

May the departed souls of the late Castro and wife rest in eternal perfect peace in the bosom of their Maker. Amen.
