Dearest Dad: You will be happy to know Tejas' University is going smoothly and Shreya's school is also going well. She has four more years to University and at this point still contemplating her options. She has a long way to go to make up her mind but has decided on her 9th grade classes. Wish I could talk to you about all that. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: Everyday I miss you more and more. These days the remotest memories trigger thoughts about you. I really wish you were here to talk to and get advice from. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: I was reading about the India victory against Pakistan in the limited overs game in 1985. I remember watching with you. It was a Sunday and you and I talked a lot about it. Really miss those kind of conversations. Love you and Miss you lots.

Dearest Dad
Today is India's Republic day. I remember we used to watch the parade on TV every year on this day and you would enlighten me on the people and the groups of the Indian forces. Wish so much that I could get back to those simpler times. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad

This year, more than any before, I miss you a lot. I have had dreams about you frequently in the last few days. I really wish you were here. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: I just finished reading a novel called "Boy at the Top of the Mountain". It is a sad story about the World War II times. I am sure you would have enjoyed it a lot. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad. As Shreya is preparing for High school and selecting courses, I remember our conversations ahead of my High school. In India we did not have too many choices. But, with your help I made the right decision and the right choice. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: On this Diwali day, I miss you a lot remembering the good old days when we enjoyed Diwali with sweets, savories, and fireworks. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad:

A lot has happened in the last two weeks. Vanitha got her Citizenship. I know you would have celebrated merrily at the news. Tejas is deep into first semester at University of Waterloo and is already busy. Shreya is also busy at school. Missing you lots and lots. Love you a lot.

Dearest Dad: A lot has happened over the last few days and weeks since I last wrote to you. Will be writing about it one by one next week. But, as I was going through this week, I remembered our time together and it always brought a smile to my face. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: Was thinking about your excellent grasp of English. I was talking very highly about your command of the English and the letters that you had easily penned for me. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: Thinking about our time in Chennai when you first purchased the apartment. The pride with which you were able to pay off the purchase without mortgage was amazing. Miss you and love you lots.

Dear Daddy,

It is 6th Death Anniversary. I always think of you. I miss you & lots of love daddy.
Love Daddy & remember you always.

Dear Brother-in-Law,
I just started to write, and the lights went out, reminding me India where it is very common and every day situation in some places.
It is 6th anniversary, me and Eileen think of you quite often.
We miss you and love you. Situation and living conditions are not the same in US ( should I say most of the places around the world including India ). It was wonderful to think of time I spent with you in Calcutta!
Love you and remember you always

Dearest Dad: It has been six years since you left us. Since then I have been thinking about you everyday, a lot of times with regret at things left unsaid and undone. I wish you were here today with me to share my life that is now incomplete without you. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: Saw an old photo of Saroja. Remembered the good old when we used to go to Coimbatore and spent a few days there with her and her family. I wish we could go back in time and get back together. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: On this Father's Day, I wish you were here to celebrate with me. Love you and miss you lots.

Dear Daddy,

Happy Birthday Daddy in heaven. I love you and I miss you lot daddy

Dearest Dad:

It is your birthday today. I really wish you were here today to share this day and I had done more to ensure you were.

Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: Tejas got accepted at the University of Waterloo into the CS program with some scholarship. He is starting in August. Thanks for guiding him well over the years you were with him. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: Was shopping for PC Speakers and remembered you had purchased mini speakers in those days for me. It was thoughtful of you to do that. You always did a lot of thoughtful things for others. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: I was just watching a movie called Ms. Sloane, which you would have loved. It was a movie about a lobbyist who does a lot of things very differently to get the necessary results. I would have loved to watch it with you. Miss you and Love you lots.

Dearest Dad: I am reading a book that you may have enjoyed - Everything I never told you by Celeste Ng. It is amazingly well written and the description of character and scene on each page is gripping. Wish you were here to talk with me about it. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: I have been having a lot of dreams with you in them these days. I love that you are in my dreams now a lot more than before. I am watching a movie that you would have loved. Call to Spy - About training women spies and sending them to Nazi occupied France. Would have loved to talk with you about it. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: India reached the finals of the World Cup for Test Cricket. The Cricket world tried this new format and it has been successful. A Test World cup that lasts 2 years. Finals is in England in June (one test) against New Zealand. Would have loved to chat about the last few games India had. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: Tejas has got admission to the University of Toronto Computer Science Program. We are going this weekend to look at the University. Although this is ranked in the Top-ten globally, he is waiting for University of Waterloo. I wish you had been here. You would have been beaming with pride. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: Tejas was admitted to the Computer Science program at McMaster University. This is close to where we used to live before Waterloo. We are waiting on University of Toronto & University of Waterloo. Hopefully, those results should be coming around in about a month. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: It is Shreya's Birthday today. She has become a teenager today. I know you would have been proud of the way she has grown up. Wish you were here to see her today. Miss you and love you lots.

Dear Brother in Law,
Eileen and I miss you. It is 2021 , put behind 2020, undoubtedly the worst year since I came here in 1971 and worst in my life time. One has to be optimistic about the Future, think positively like Norman Vincent Peale said but things are yet to get better! Though this country is divided into half, neither of the parties are in a position to govern meaningfully taking the interests of common citizens. I have chosen Independent now from once democratic, became republican in 1984!
The incoming party is likely to do more harm than good in some areas. Big tech companies and media will likely to be playing big part in keeping the so called “freedom “ , the flame of this country. We could have had a good discussion if you were here since we agreed to disagree in our discussions! Bless us from above to have a better life! Love,
RP

Dearest Dad: You would be pleased and proud to know that Shreya is moving forward very quickly with concepts in both Programming and Mathematics. She is going to be part of a Technovation group that is working on projects to solve problems. Tejas is in waiting mode for Admissions. Today is also the Inauguration of the New President in US bringing a lot of hope both within and outside US. Time will tell how this new Presidency fares. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: A lot has happened since I last wrote to you. The most unbelievable of all this is the riots at the US capitol. That August structure that we visited in 1996 together was the seat of mob riots and violence resulting in a few deaths including that of a Capitol Police Officer. I can imagine the conversations we would have had about this and wish you were here for that. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: As we get closer to the end of the year, this seems to be one of the worst years the world has seen in a long time. A lot has changed this year and people have learnt to do a lot of things remotely. However, one thing that has not changed is that I miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: Tejas is close to completing his applications for U of Toronto and U of Waterloo. As he hears the completion, I keep thinking about all the help you provided me with my College/Univ Applications. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: As I write to you, the Pandemic rages on. But, there is light at the end of the tunnel. Mass vaccinations are starting soon in Russia and U.K and potentially in US as well. Russia worries me since the vaccinations are starting without adequate testing. Hopefully, by the time the next Summer rolls out, the majority of the world population would have been vaccinated. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: As we are nearing the end of this year, I think of you a lot. I had the best times in my life when we were at home at the end of school term whether it was St.Johns or Indian High School or MCC or even University. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: I am sure that if you had been with me now, we both would have been closely following the US Elections. I am sure you would have had questions about polling practices here vs US and I would have enjoyed the banter. I miss you and love you lots.

Dear Brother-in-Law,
Happy that thanks to your beloved son Srikanth’s effort, your lovely wife Parimala is able to arrive to Canada safely. Also note that Teja’s will be soon going to a great college and explore in a new career field of his interest. We all miss you in Florida

Dearest Dad: Mom arrived from India a few days ago after a forced long stay due to Covid. Staying with her brings back a lot of memories of you. I wish I had done more for you to be with me at this time. I miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: Tejas is working on his applications. Keep remembering how you had me apply to quite a few colleges and then went to the bank to get a draft and also helped me with the applications. Thanks so much for everything. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: As Tejas gets into his applications for University, I recall the huge amount of time you spent with me for my applications at both Undergrad and Grad level. You helped fill out a lot of it for me and not to forget the Demand Draft you had to get from the banks for each of the Applications. Thanks so much for everything. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: I am watching Quantum of Solace, one of the less well known Bond movies. It brought back memories of us watching a series of bond movies together. I think we ended up watching every single one of them together. I loved that time. Miss you and love you lots.

Dear Brother in Law,
This is a trying time for all of us on Earth. We could have used your wisdom if you were here...thinking of you! Love,
RP( Durga )

Dearest Dad: I have started on a project that may make you very proud. I hope it does. During the last few days/weeks I have been thinking more and more about you. Those who say "Time heals" do not understand reality. Miss you and love you lots.

Hi, Ajja. I miss you. I remember you used to send us emails about tales. They sometimes made me smile, and some made me sad. I definitely enjoyed them, however!
We all miss you so much.

Hey Ajja, I miss you. I remember we used to play chess together and you used to beat me. I remember Ajji always yelled at you because you wouldn't take it easy on me. I was also angry too, but eventually, because of you, I learned not to give up and let go easily. Thank you for that lesson Ajja,

Tejas

Dearest Dad: It has been 5 years since you left us. I think of everything we used to do together every day since then. I wish I had more time with you now more than ever. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: I watched a snippet of Mind your language. Remembered how we enjoyed that show during our time in Dubai. We used to look forward to that show weekly. Miss that time. Miss you lots and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: Today I got a call from an old friend, Bala. He used to stay close to us. Talking to him reminded me of you since he used to come over home and you used to welcome him and talk to him. You were always welcoming to all of my friends that way. Miss you and love you lots.

Dearest Dad: On this Fathers Day, I remember the wonderful times we shared. I would give anything to spend one more Fathers Day with you. Miss you and love you lots.
