Heartfelt condolences to Mrs.Manickavasagar and family, Ketheeswaran and Theivanayaki. We were neighbours in Manipay and our families have known each other for generations. Childhood memories of our playing together, going to Manipay Hindu College and learning and group-singing of thevarams weekly, under the dedicated supervision of his father, Mr.Sellathambi, are flooding back into our minds. May his soul rest in peace.
