Dear Friends,

VERY SAD NEWS ALAS!

We are extremely pained to hear the sad news that our very dear Mr. D. R. Nathan passed away at 11 10a.m. I gather   from Shri. K. Gopal that the end was peaceful. The cremation is likely to be tomorrow morning. I understand from Ramesh, his son, that the end was peaceful. The cremation is likely to be tomorrow morning, the 10th April 10.

When I communicated this to Mr. K. S. Ramanathan at his Coimbatore res, he condoled and said, that two people in Madras branch will always be remembered for their singular contributions: 1. Dr.R. Krishnaswamy & 2.Mr.D.R.Nathan.

I entirely agree with him and so will all who knew both of these wonderful human beings!!

May we all join the family in praying for Mr. Nathan's soul to rest in peace!! Amen!!

Yours in sorrow,

C. Jagadishan

Mr. Jagadishan's condolence note to Badri & Ramesh, Mr. Nathan's sons

Very dear Badri / zamesh,                                                                                

10/4/10

Your father was an exceptionally compassionate, empathetic,caring, and most lovable person with extra-ordinary sense of humour and great presence of mind!

Shri. DRN & Dr. R. Krishnaswami were two individuals who made significant and substantial contributions to Glaxo in South of India! Both will be ever remembered for their singular and noteworthy contributions! Both had a knack of keeping others all the time smiling, forget their grief/sorrow, give them warmth, love and affection all the time! Both were great teachers in their own right! I and many others have greatly learnt quite a few things from both of them!

May their soul rest in peace!

May the Good lord give your dear Mother Smt. Padma Nathan and you both and all other family members the strength and fortitude to bear this irreparable loss!

Yours in sorrow,

Jagdishan. C
