Too well loved to ever be forgotten. Grand Uncle Francis, affectionately Francis uncle. He was a scholar that instinctively knew to be there during critical times in my life (dance arangetram, university studies, dad's illness, and law school) to provide sound advice and introduce me to helpful people. He also instilled in me a lasting love of Tamil language and arts. I will miss our many intelligent and thoughtful conversations. His friendliness and enthusiasm will be missed.
