As a matter of fact, how many of my fellow ganv bhoins and bhaus know that there are many families in Don Vaddo today who are returnees from Burma? Yvonne Vaz and her cousins share this history. It is a rich history; a story of suffering and of human tragedy. But it needs to be told. And, it needs quiet, patient, sympathetic listeners.
