Tribute to Mom


Our beloved mother Smt. Geetha Ramamoorthy, w/o Late Shri. H. Ramamoorthy, passed away peacefully at 6.00 am on Oct 2, 2008, Thursday at Army Command Hospital, Kolkata. A lady of tremendous courage, positive attitude, very spiritual and immensely beautiful and talented. She finally gave up her two years of fight against breast cancer on Gandhi Jayanthi day. She was a wonderful human being who has touched many lives in her own little way. She led her life with great dignity having lost her husband at an young age and raised three children, a daughter and two sons. We, her children are fortunate to have her as our mother and are very proud of her.

Though she is no longer with us in body, her soul and spirit continues to exist with us. She always told us that her childhood aspiration was to become a soldier or a doctor and serve humanity. And interestingly her youngest son, is a pediatrician in the Indian Armed Forces - A doctor and a soldier. She received the best treatment at the Army Command Hospitals, Pune and Kolkata respectively. She lived a dignified life and received a
farewell befitting the proud mother of a Soldier.

I thank my family members, relatives, friends and my brother's colleagues at the Army Command Hospital, Kolkata, who have been very supportive and helpful.

For the beautiful person that she was, for all the pujas and vratas she did with steadfastness.. and so taught us how to be steady... for the good teacher that she was.. my dear Maina Attya..May her soul rest in peace...

Although not a shock, given her detriorating health, It is difficult for me to accept that she will no longer be there.. I guess it will take some time afterall.. may her devas grant her a special place in the heavens.. and grant us the strength to cope with the loss..

With Love,
Saurabh

With great grief and sadness, I convey my condolences. Ever since I remember, Mami had always been a beacon of courage, strength, positive attitude and the unmatched ability to relate to everybody. No matter how old I was, I always recall how she showered attention and affection all the time. All through the night, I had images of Amma and Mami conversing and retracing the past. It is impossible to get over and the void always remains. My profound respects to Mami, and pray that destiny imparts courage for you,Raja,Ravi and all family members to withstand this deep sorrow.

Dear Manju,
I and my husband express our deepest condolences to u.I was not aware of it till recently.It is hard to know that aunty is no more.The last i saw her was when we went to visit Nagraj at his karama house in Dubai.She very affectionately prepared delicious food for us.She served us with hot chapatis,srikhand,brinjal curry etc.
May God you enough strength to overcome this.
She is a wonderful humanbeing and a very beautiful person.
