Dear Ram, This sad intimation came to me as a shock. I have known your brother from the dreamy old days when we went to worship at Slave Island Subramaniar temple! He was such a prominent youngster then always active with various chores at the temple. Here too when we met in London he continued his spiritual duties with the Saiva Munnetra Sangam. Life will never be the same without him working in the background of the Saiva community activities. While expressing my deepest Sympathies to you, his children, and rest of the family, I would miss his cheerful personality in our midst. Dear Pathmanathan, we will let you now Rest in Peace.
