“I am deeply saddened on the loss of my beloved Pisaji. He was an honest and hardworking person. Pisaji was a great mentor and source of inspiration to us. He always helped the people and changed the life for better future. We will miss him immensely. “ ~ Anil, USA
ReplyDeleteA great soul has left for the heavenly abode. The greatness probably doesn't go with the fact what big achievements one has made in the lifetime. How humble and subdued you remain with people around and down the line even after achieving the milestones - that really makes you great. If someone matched my father's simplicity and accessibility it was Mr Dutt, Bauji as we fondly called him. Both of them have left us creating a vacuum...it's trying time...S.Narayan, Ranchi
