Sad news,
I remember him and his sisters (Tanya and Elath (spelling?). Seemed like well-brought up kids. Elath was on the same NIM-Uttarkashi (mountain trekking) course as I in '83.
Judah was a good boxer, though I think he lost to Iqbal Durazi in the final when they were in the 12th (I was in the 8th & a boxing fan - got my boxing colours yrs later), Tanya was also quite the athlete.

What a tragic loss, I knew Judah personally, through my entire life inside and outside of Cathedral,he was always a pleasure to be around.Having left India 25 years ago I am sorry that I did not keep in touch with so many of my friends, however, even in their absence, our years together at Cathedral ingrained the good times through the incredible childhood we had together at this institution. I will miss you Judah.
My condolences to those left behind, they are always the ones who suffer most.
