Ratan Tata is no more. He was 87. At 87, how someone died becomes broadly immaterial. People, even those who love you know that you are hanging by too many rather tenuous threads. Which one will give away on a given day may depend upon the the weather or the mood (say, you laughed rather hard after years). And such death is often graceful. Just the way most of us hope to go away. Ratan Tata seems to have gone well — a slowly fading beacon of a patriarch. We are all happy about that.
