Mein saariya da shukriya karna chaundi for all of you who wished my Babaji well before he left for the hospital, and for condolences after his death.

Menu aap nu haije vi yakeen nahi aaunda vi mere babaji ehs duniya vichon chaale gaye hai. Menu inj lagda vi babaji haije ethe hi aa, vi mere room vich mere bed vich paye aa, yaan downstairs sofe teh paye aa, yaan roti kah reh. Jadon ek insaan old ho jaanda aur chaale jaanda, loki keh dindeh, chalo koi na, oh da time see, old see, sick see, jaana taan see. But mere babaji iddan deh nahi see. He was about 6'2 very healthy, India vich mere babaji wrestler hundeh see and oh na aphi hull boneh, naale aphi saara farming da kamm karna. ethe aake vi bohat strong reh, haije taak vi bohat strong see, bibi neh kehna, ehdiyan bahaan laathaan lohe diyan baniya. ehna sakaat see mera baba. i think saanu taan ehna dukh lagda vi inj nahi lagda jiddan koi elderly person family vichon chaale gaya, rather edaan lagda vi ek jawaan munda saade parvaar vichon duniya chaad k chaale gaya.

Hoya ki see... he had a triple by-pass and the surgery went fine but an hour later there were complications to the point where one of his arteries burst. that created a pool of blood in which his heart drowned and stopped. the surgeons managed to re-start the heart but the damage done in the time was so severe, (to the liver, kidneys, brain, and nervous system), that all his vital organs were damaged and he only survived in a state of unconsciousness for about 4 days. Monday raat nu mere babaji ehs duniya vichon chaale gaye.

i was very close with my baba ji, him and bibi ji raised us from birth. assi saare kateh hi rendeh see. At my babaji's funeral, i read a speech and i would like to share that speech with you all. Jeh dil karda, paar liyo, nahi taan nahi...

“Think not disdainfully of death, but look on it with favor; for even death is one of the things that Nature wills”. - Marcus Aurelius


Before my babaji’s body leaves us forever, I would like to share a few of the funniest and sweetest memories me and my sisters had with him.

When we were born, baba ji made nicknames for us. Mera na paya see kattu, Jyoti see bachu, and reena see meema. Haije taak babaji nu saade eh naa yaad see.


When jyoti was a baby babaji would take a chunni and tie it around her ankles and tie the other end of the chunni to the leg of a sofa, so that she wouldn’t crawl towards the stairs or hurt herself.

Jadon babaji neh thakyo aauna kamm toon, oh na neh sofe teh peh jaana and kehna, aajo meri pitt teh walk karo. Assi chaar jaana babaji di pitt teh, naale kaand nu far far k hasna naale thorna

Jadon mein pehli waari bicycle chalona sikhdi see, babaji menu driveway che sikhondeh see, teh menu chaad ditta. Bibi kendeh, kuri nu faar la, dig na jaave. Babaji kendeh nahi nahi oh nu jaan deh kulli, nahi taan ohne sikhna nahi. Babaji neh menu chaad ditta teh mere kohl bicycle rokh nahi hoya teh mein road vich chaali gayi. meh dig gayi teh mere bahaan laathan teh saataa lagiyan, fer babaji menu chup karaa veh.

Jadon assi babaji nu yaad karde, saanu sirf happy memories hi yaad aaundiyan. Babaji, thank you for all these sweet memories you left us with. Thank you for raising us from birth and giving us the love of 100 grandfathers in one. We will always think of you and remember your eyes which were filled with a life of wisdom and experience. We will remember your paag and cherish you as a man of integrity and ijaath. We will remember your strong hands that held us, that wiped our tears, the hands that fed us milk. Your hands were always hard and strong. When I remember your hands, I think of all the acres of land you farmed and harvested, of all the work you did for our family. When we remember your face, we will remember the way you smiled and the way your moustache and beard would tickle our cheeks when you kissed us. Thank you Babaji for everything. Pavaan thusi chaale gaye, saada rishta nahi mukya, and saada pyar tohade vaste hamesha baddu ga. God bless your soul.

thank you all again for your condolences.

Love,
pums
