A TRIBUTE TO MY BROTHER


                            *A Tribute to my Brother*

                Today 9th August is Rangjee’s Punya Tilhi. Yes I always called him Rangjee though he was three year elder to me but I never said Bhai sahib or dada to him. I do not know how I was used to say ‘Rangjee’; but I have great respect and regard for him Amma and chacha had told me that this name was given to him on the name Rang Nath Mandir’s ‘Rangjee Bhagwan’. Ioved the name as it gave the sweetest feelings
                 He was six footer, well built,  fair complexion, very handsom with shy and sweet smile on his face. He was known as a very successful High court judge. I recall his roles as brother, son father and husband which he carried out to the best extent.  
                 Whenever I was n delima and needed guidance he was always there to admonish. He was very pure hearted and down to earth person full of emotions. Though he was an introward but he was a wealth , library of knowledge and information. Not only that he was very caring and concerned for all relatives poor or rich.
                 I do not know what others think but this is my personal feeling that he    was very close and attached to mother and all sisters.
                After the death of my ‘Babujee’ he was more like a father figure, took all the responsibilities of my ‘MAYKA’. Every Teej, BhaiDuj he never forgot me. 
                 I think in todays modern society everything, festivals, feelings get limited with your own son and daughter. But he was different like a banyan Tree (Bat Vriksh) under whose shelter every one could grow with humanity, love, effection, Patienee  co-operation and empathy. He inculcated all the high values of Babujee. I am proud to say that he embibed the same values in children too.
    Our elders are always around us and there presence can be felt in one form or other
