Dear Mr. Kunjuppu, 


Actually our great grandmother was kept so busy by her eight 


grandchildren (out of which six were boys and one was a new born baby) 


she had no time to think about herself. 


In those days no kitchen gadgets to help and everything had to be done 


manually. She must have worked day and night to look after these eight 


kids and her busy doctor son-in-law!


When late in her life, she lost her memory (Alzheimer' disease?) she 


would instruct the person in her room, to call all those imaginary 


characters walking around and always she would want to feed them.


She is the one person who was a  real Annapoorni- the giver of food to 


everyone who had the good fortune of being seen by her!


She was so cheerful, so kind, so selfless, so jovial that it is hard to 


imagine such a person in real life. 


She died within ten days after our paternal grandfather (our music / 


maths/grammar guruji) died. 


Today if they were alive they would be ~ 125 years old!


Two great people in our real lives!


with warm regards, 

V.R.
