You never said I’m leaving
You never said goodbye
You were gone before I knew it,
And only God knew why
A million times I needed you,
A million times I cried
If Love alone could have saved you,
You never would have died
In Life I loved you dearly
In death I love you still
In my heart you hold a place,
That no one could ever fill
It broke my heart to lose you,
But you didn’t go alone
For part of me went with you,
On my birthday that God took you home.

Paras, thats soo sad, and the poem is really sweet
Dear Paras. Jagdish Bhai, Vasundhara, Pujya Bai, Kishor Bhai and the entire family:
We were saddened by the news of Nanima’s departure. We had good fortune of doing “medavo” with her during our visit to Mumbain in April. Duncan talked to her and gave her some water with his hands. She also recognized Sheela and gave her blessings to both of them.
She was a strong person and a good teacher. We know Paras was very close to her.
Please accept our heartfeld sympathy for the loss to the family of a the senior most person. May her soul find peace on her way to the eternal jouney.

We all are with you in this sad time. With nanimas’ departure we have lost a very strong person, dedicated teacher, carring mother and a loving nanima. May her soul find peace.
Paras,
I’m very sorry to hear about Nanima’s departure. I remember her as a very sweet person. Everytime I would come to your house, she would talk to me with so much love and warmth. I know you were close to her and loved her dearly. The poem you wrote is very touching and brought tears to my eyes. She will be missed. Please convey regards to bai, mummy, papa and family.

So sorry to hear paras, I know you are sad…take care of yourself. Give my regards to the whole family–She was very sweet and loving. I enjoyed doing medavo with her in mumbai when I was there. I know she will be missed greatly.

Paras,
Our deep-felt sympathies are with all of you. Nanima became a very special person to me in a very short time. Her laugh was soft yet contagious, and the kind of love she had for us was very heart-warming. We both pray for her and join you in your grief, but the memory of her laugh and her warmth will remain with us always.

Dear paras, pujya Bai & family, We are with you all in your sad time. Ma’s strong personality, courage & love will alway be
remembered. We all are so fortunate for having ma’s blessing & love. ” Prabhu ma na Atma ne amarshanti arpe.”
Paras,
I am very sorry to hear about Nanima. I was luck enough to be able to spend a little bit of time with her when I was in India this past summer. I would sit down and talk to her for a little bit every time I went to your house. She always talked about how she remembered us when we were all very little. We will all miss her very much…
