Dear Peri-amma, Raju, Jeyan, Thampi and family, Please accept my heartfelt condolences on the passing of Peri-appa.. Although I had the opportunity to meet him only a few times since becoming part of your family, those moments left a lasting impression. I found Per-appa to be a man of clear thinking, honesty, confident voice, and warmth. During my last visit in November, I thought that he was beginning to lose his memory, yet I was touched and surprised that he still remembered my name—and even our son's name, Athavan, and having a meaningful conversation. That speaks volumes about the respect and value he gave to everyone in his life, regardless of age or relation. Peri-appa lived a meaningful life, and he will be remembered fondly. ஓம் சாந்தி🙏🙏🙏
