Bhatt Family

I got into our blog today after my trip to India and was shocked to see this message. I have such fond memories of the whole family. I spend many evenings at their place and had such wonderful meals with the family. I always looked forward to maam's meals, they were a welcome change for me from the hall meals. I used to walk with Poopy and Priya in the evening all around the campus, they used to take me to all the remote areas of the campus where none of us would ever try to venture. They were a loving couple, they cared and respected for each other so much, it was a treat to watch them. I used think lucky are those people who truly find a soulmate in their life. There were days when maam got back from work and she felt very tired and would go and lay in her bed and ask sir if he could massage her legs and sir would very lovingly do it for her, those images are still fresh in my mind. I also had the pleasure to introduce Jay( my husband) to them and Jay has been able to meet them many times after that. He loved them so much. He will be shocked to hear such a sad news. Sir was the reason I chose a red saree for my wedding. He had suggested me to choose a red saree since the color red is very auspicious. True or not I really feel blessed in my married life. I had such a great time with them. I will miss them a lot. They have been a great part of my life and will continue to be. Sir and Maam are truly great souls and I feel blessed to have known them. They will forever be in my heart and their kids in my prayer.
I hope the kids are able to cope with the loss of such wonderful parents.
