WHAT CAN I SAY ABOUT HARRY,
HE WAS A LAWRENCIAN TOO AND HE WAS A SENIOR TO ME, BUT WHILE IN LOVEDALE I DID NOT KNOW HIM AT ALL, EXCEPT PERHAPS I HEARD HIS NAME, BUT MANY YEARS LATER, WE BOTH JOINED LAWRENCE SCHOOL SITE AND THAT IS WHERE I CAME TO KNOW HIM BETTER.
HE HAD DONE GOOD FOR HIMSELF AT HOME IN INDIA AND ABROAD, BUT WHEN HE RETIRED HE BECAME A GRAND MASTER IN REKHI, SOMETHING THAT HE BELIEVED IN VERY STRONGLY, BUT IT WAS HARD FOR ME TO BELIEVE AS I KNEW VERY LITTLE ABOUT THE SUBJECT, HE WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE ADDED EXTRA ANIMALS TO THE EARTH, STOPPED THE ICE CAPPED MOUNTAINS FROM MELTING, EVEN CURED THE INCURABLE WHICH TO MY MIND WAS VERY FAR FETCHED.THIS LED US TO SOME LENGTHY ARGUMENTS. HE EVEN ONCE TOLD ME HE COULD MAKE ME TWENTY YEARS YOUNGER IF I SENT MY PICTURE TO HIM, AND I DID LOOSE MY TEMPER AT THAT AND ASKED HIM NOT TO INCLUDE ME IN HIS EXPERIMENTS, AND THAT I LIKE THE WAY AND AGE I WAS AT, WE DID NOT TALK FOR A WHILE BUT MY E-MAIL IN BOX WAS FLOODED WITH FORWARD MAILS , HALF OF WHICH I DELETED WITHOUT READING AS THERE WAS FAR TO MUCH OF THEM.
TIME WENT BY I WOULD SEE HIS MAILS IN THE LAWRENCE FORUM AND SOME TIME OTHER EX LAWRENCIAN WOULD RIDICULE HIM, I FELT SAD AT TIMES BECAUSE I DO THINK WE SHOULD ALLOW EVERY ONE TO HIS OWN BELIEFS, AS LONG AS IT WAS NOT HARMING ANY ONE.
SUDDENLY MAIL STOPPED FOR A WHILE AND I DID THINK HE MIGHT BE ILL, LITTLE DID I KNOW THE END WAS AT HAND, ONE DAY I FOUND TRIBUTES IN THE MAILS BEING PAID TO HARRY, HE WAS NO MORE, I CRIED, ANOTHER FRIEND WENT WITHOUT SAYING BYE, THAT IS THE SADDEST PART OF LIFE, ONE MOMENT YOUR IN THIS WORLD AND NEXT JUST ASHES AND SWEET MEMORIES, I COULD NOT BELIEVE THOSE THAT RIDICULED HIM WERE FEELING SAD AND PAYING TRIBUTES TO THE DEAR DEPARTED, WELL THAT IS BEING HUMAN WE DO NOT REALIZE THAT NOTHING LASTS FOR EVER, MAY HARRY'S SOUL REST IN PEACE,, I DO THINK OF HIM NOW AND AGAIN
