We missed you dearly Lino, when you stopped your most popular contribution in `It-Torca` due to health reasons. The page which most of It-Torca readers used to go for first.

R.I.P. Lino. May the Good Lord have mercy on your soul. Ragel ta Veru...

Condolances to the family.

Mr Cassar was so unpretentious that we may never know his important and positive contribution that he made to Maltese society. I love you always Lino and will miss you so very much.

Surprised to read the above, not mentioning that Lino Cassar was for decades film critic for the Sunday Times reviewing the films to be shown on TV week by week.

Blue skies Lino, we talked not so long ago.

He'll most certainly feature in next Sunday's Nalizperla' cartoon!

Certainly a sad loss, a man of talent ,humour and also a historian through his writings which he left us for posterity!

What Lino did he did with passion and will be remembered most fondly and also with a smile at the humour he instilled in his writing with due appreciation of the Maltese language.
