Dear Yasho bhaiya, Each time I met you, there was something to learn and laugh about too...seemed like the whole package had been passed from Puran Karan Tauji and Gyan Taiji to you. A great depth of knowledge on everything, the openness to share it, the acceptance of life with grace, the humility and the wit...the list can go on. But the one that has always stuck with me is the deep love and support for family...something that I have seen in the whole family imbibe. I remember you calmly sitting next to Tauji before his last journey and reading verses from the Gita I think it was. It was a beautiful sight of a son who was in love with his father but also calm and detached (in a spiritual sense) like one should be...an amazing balance. I don't know as much as you (may be in 3 janmas I will...fingers crossed! :-)) but I definitely know that those who live in the hearts of their loved ones, live forever and Yasho bhaiya...you truly are one of them. Lot's of love, Packet
Dear Sheila aunty, Dhruv, Varun, I'm very sorry for your loss. Wishing you strength and peace during these difficult times. I'm thinking of our many fond memories in Lusaka and Yasho uncle's cheerful nature. One memory stands out: Varun and I must have been in 9th-10th grade. Yasho uncle, Sheila aunty, and Varun came by our house. My parents were out for the evening, and I was doing my best to study for my exams. Seeing as my parents weren't home, Yasho uncle suggested I sneak out and join him and the family for dinner. I thought it was a bad idea, but there's no way I could stand up to Yasho uncle's suggestion, so I went along with it. No surprise, it turned out to be a great idea and we had an entertaining dinner! I will miss his ability to make people feel welcome, no matter of difference in age, interest, etc. Sumeet
I have many memories with Yasho Jijaji, few of them are : I was very young (9 yrs old) when Yasho Jijaji & Sheela Didi got married. During his first visit after the wedding, We offered him a Paan filled with Gulab Jamun trying to do a prank. But to our surprise, he relished the combination & demanded one more. During his visit with Sheela Didi to Hyderabad way back in December 2003, We enjoyed the stay with both of them. He was fascinated with an Huge Ice-Cream called Titanic, He took around 45 minutes to eat & relished every spoon. He always appreciated small little things done for him. He always encouraged me to broaden the vision of my kids by giving exposure of the world. Love him always. Miss you Jijaji.
jijaji was such a humble person... i remember once maybe one or two year back.. he was in amravati in summer. the air cooler was not working and the person who repairs did not show up... jijaji bieng himself went to the shop got the parts of the air cooler and repaired it himself and got it started... he did not think that the work was not for him as in india if our son in law comes we dont let them do this kind of work... but he never uttered a word and did all the work himself happily... a most humble act on his part....

Dear Nanaji, May you Rest in peace, you will always be in our prayers and hearts. As far as I remember, I was five years old when I met you, and Aarushi was about two years old. You were always with us from the very first day And stayed with us for so long for more than ten years. You have always inspired us from the beginning and told us to believe in ourselves, and we reached where we are because of your guidance and experience. I am about to graduate from college, and Aarushi is applying to go to college. Your laugh was so amazing. It always made us smile so much and lit up the atmosphere. You mixed the juices that you used to give us endlessly. Our talks we had on the sofa, and all our picnics together. You were such a jolly person. Whenever Mummy and Papa told us not to be mischievous, you always let us have fun and be mischievous when we came home. Thank you so much for being by our side and helping us understand what is right and wrong. You loved us like your children, and we will always love you. We are so glad we got to know someone like you.
