Dear Friends,

I am to inform you all that another batch mate of us from Mechanical 'Thamos Varghees' died in a road accident, but this was very long time back.

I have come across some thing in recent time and I would like to QUOTE it as it is, in the memory of our friends, Late Thomos Varghees and Late Bhasin-Goldie

A VANISHED FRIEND:

Around the corner I have a Friend,

In this great city that knows no end,

Yet days go by and weeks rush on,

And before I know it year has gone,

And I never see my old friend's face,

For Life is a swift and terrible race.

He Knows I like him just as well

As in the days when I rang his bell and he rang mine.

We were younger then, and now we are busy, tired men-

Tired with playing a foolish game,

Tired with trying to make a name.

Tomorrow, say I will call on JIM

Just to show that I am thinking of him,

But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes,

Around the corner at miles away,

Here is a telegram, Sir' - JIM DIED, TODAY

And that's what we get and deserve in the end-

Around the corner A VANISHED FRIEND.

                     ******

Regarding the SUPPORT to be extended to his family, I endorse the views expressed by our friend SP and before we go ahead we ascertain the need without hurting their feeling further.

But some one should come forward and give a final CALL.

Where are you  Rajiv D Kaul and Vinod Wali ?

Please share your thoughts.

Bye

Dear Rao,

That was wonderful - this is what life is all about.

We all should consider ourselves blessed that we are all in touch  all over again - unfortunately it was because of a VANISHED FRIEND.

What happened to Thomas ? Where is his family ??
