A GREAT MAN IS GONE The man who defined his own destiny was not a President nor a Prime minister but had the stature of great one and with a name beginning with P, yes it is Mr Puthrasingam. He was a great son, husband, father, father-in law, grand father, brother, brother-in law, relative and friend to many. He was successful in his achievements, as an accomplished author and teacher, furthermore much like his father before him he was very charitable person. He enjoyed his big circle of good friends and vice versa. When he spoke to people younger than him it was like a roar of lion, which is fitting as his name translates to ‘son lion‘. But that scary powerful roar always had a meaning to help and guide. Still for all we will miss his kind voice and his pleasing smile when he was happy. The least eulogy I could say having known him for more than seventy good years. Thasan, as known to him. Skanthathas Iyadurai
