True, Madhavi, both touching and symbolic - for it touched every chord in our heart and symbolic, for father is like a lighthoudr to guide our ship in deep sea! Thank you.

Yes, Rupa. That is the real truth. Is it not?

It is very sad, Rupa. However, the strength he provided when alive is ever alive. Father does not die in the hearts of his children. The shade he always provides to march forward. Thank you, dear.
