| Vidula, Hemu, Thakore and Ba |
During my post graduation studies my father died and I had to discontinue studies to earn some money. My professor, Thakore Mistry, who taught Agriculture Economics was writing a thesis on Poultry Farming in Gujarat for his doctorate degree. He already had one but needed an another assistant to help him tabulate his statistics. He was kind enough to offer me a summer job until I found another in a bank.
This picture was taken, I was told, when he returned from USA.
His mother fought for Independence and went to jail for it. A beautiful cultured family.
He once asked me to do without God for a week and see if sky befell me. It did not and I was a changed person.
Shortly after my arrival to USA he died of Leukemia and left a beautiful wife, young boy and widowed mother behind.
