SAD NEWS: Ram Das Goyal, Father of Editor Arun Goyal is No More

$Description: E:\Weekly Material\Daily Index\13.01.2014\RD ji.jpg$ Regret to announce that my father Shri Ram Das Goyal, age 84 breathed his last on Friday, 10 January 2014 in Jaipur. He died in sleep. He was not suffering from any illness as such, old age and disaffection with this world finally caught up with him.

The third day (Theeya) ceremony signifying end of grief period and return to normal life took place on Sunday, 12 January in Jaipur. I am proceeding to Haridwar to immerse the ashes in the Holy Ganga.

Papa is survived by my mother, age 79 and my younger sister, apart from me.

I am happy and grateful to him for nourishing and guiding me. He was a simple man who led honest and sincere life devoted to his family, friends and society. He gave me a chance to learn how to love and do “seva”.

I am specially thankful to all of you and condolence messages.

Arun Goyal, Mita Bose (wife), Asim Goyal (Son) and ABS Staff
