Can you tell me more about Tatya Patil's life and his role beyond just helping Baba during the Chavadi procession?

The provided excerpts from Chapter 37 highlight Tatya Patil's significant and intimate role specifically within the context of the Chavadi procession. It is mentioned that their mutual love was so great that Tatya called Baba 'Mama' (uncle), and Baba would not leave for the procession until Tatya arrived to help Him up. Tatya would also place a shawl on Baba and hold His left hand during the walk to the Chavadi. However, these passages from Chapter 37 do not offer any further details about Tatya Patil's life, his background, or his responsibilities and interactions with Baba outside of this specific ceremonial event.
