Dear Padma Acca, I was shocked to hear you have gone home to be with the Almighty God. As I reflect my memories of your college days with my husband, Chanmugathas, in Bowling Green State University in Ohio, USA, I am so grateful for your kind hospitality and friendship along with some delicious meals. You were a thoughtful, compassionate, kind, genuine, and intellectual woman. As I was much younger to you, I always admired your personality and strong stamina; you had inspired me to follow my dream of achieving academic goals. World will miss a great strong woman and Rest In Peace!
