Fwd: Old memories from Appa(Raghavan)



Appa was earlier President of Pensioner's Association Trichur We had one room in Paruvakkat house reserved for the pensioners . He co workers in committee were KN Menon, Pandit, Kochukrishna Menon, Porinju, etc They would have regular meetings at home Some coffee/ tea , bonda all served . The Kerala pensioners were fighting to get increased pension . When he retired at 55 or so , I was 10 years old. 

Also he was a Managing member of Trichur Town Library 

When he was Devaswom Commissioner Cochin Keralavarma college Trichur was under Devaswom . Some staff used to come home with all files and Appa was signing cheques for college staff etc .

After coming to Bangalore he got engaged in Asthika samajam etc They had Sasthaoreedhi etc every year .

This is part of thattha or my appa.

He lived in Bangalore for a long period around 23 years 

He had his Account with Syndicate Bank Seshadripuram where his pension bill used to be credited .

This is a little about Appa

Our Amma was obedient and innocent .. which qualities some children possess
