This beautiful
person, this beautiful and kind soul, my maternal Grandmother left for her
heavenly abode on Wednesday, January 13th , 2016. She lived a full
life, she was blessed with 5 children (1 son and 4 daughters) all of whom doted
on her, but it was my youngest maasi who was blessed and had the privilege to
be with her and to stay and look after her till her last breath. Also, she was
more than a mother to her son-in-laws who always have had the highest regard
for her.
We, her 9
grandchildren were blessed to have had her benign presence and love in our
life, equally blessed are her 6 great grandchildren whom she loved
and pampered so much.
I am blessed to have spent
a major part of my childhood with her wherein she was not my grandmother but my
mother. The memories of a small house in a small town in kerala has
never left me, the quaint little kitchen where she cooked the tastiest
food, the fragrant smells of which wafted through the
entire house is still fresh in my memory. The taste of her tangy,
tasty, fiery fish curry can never be forgotten by anyone who has tasted
it even once, and all her grand son in laws will vouch for it....
We all miss you so much
Ammachi, we have no idea where are we going to turn to for all those precious
advises, you were always there for us with your vast knowledge, be it
regarding an auspicious date or a home remedy when our children took unwell. Who
is going to ever so patiently make us note down the recipes over the phone
now... ??
We all feel as if a great
protective shade has been suddenly taken away from us which can never be
replaced by any one.
We pray for the eternal
peace for the departed soul. We are sure she is somewhere
there above, among the stars watching over all of us and smiling that lovely
and endearing smile, showering her blessings on us.
We will all wait to meet
you Ammumma in our next birth, till then Rest in Peace...
with lots of love
