LAL & LILA AT CHOLAKATHU DEEPTHI, THALAVADY ON 29 JANUARY 2023

Exactly a month after our wedding anniversary on 29 December 2022

We were married on 29 December 1977.

47 years now in October 2025 

We were on a periodical visit to our house

Reminiscing reverberating memories that are sustained for ever. 

They are enshrined in our beings.

 They would  never ever fade away. 

They would remain wih us for ever 

A little bit of history

We are at Thalavady in  our house that Papa built after retirement from Kannan Devan Co. Papa had a very good and well paid job  there. The construction that  began in 1974 was partially completed in 1976. The family of five stayed here from then onwards. Life was tough with no income and not much savings. We were absolute zeroes. But this was a house of happiness , laughter, faith and prayer in that state of dejection, emptiness  and literal poverty. 

Then God gave me a good job that sort of stabilised us. But God had other ideas. Tragedy struck.

Mummy had a sudden headache on 14 August 1977 that turned to be Glioma, Glioblastoma, a very virulent and malignant brain tumour. She was 49 when she had the big C. She passed away on 30 May 1978 at age 50.

We gave her the best treatment possible. Vellore. But to no avail.

Papa lived on till 5 April 2008 guiding us, helping us navigate.
