Today marks one year since we lost you.
Without you, our lives feel a little less bright.
Every person has to die one day, and it’s the bitter truth of life.
Our heart still can’t accept that you are not with us anymore.
You were our strength.
You still live in our hearts and minds.
Time flies away so soon, but not a single day passes without you in our thoughts.
Your presence continues to surround and lead us.
We are nobody to question God’s will. But we feel hurt that he called you so soon. I dreamt of living a long life together, but you left me here and went to heaven alone.
The world says that time heals everything, but I still can’t stop my tears even after one year.
Miss you a lot!
Regi : A Teacher, A Wife, and A Mother
Regi was a remarkable woman who always held her head high and gave endlessly to those around her. She never let emotions come in the way of truth and passion, and this virtue made family, colleagues, friends admire her.
She had a child-like glee in her eyes when I met her first, and we both agreed and decided to be lifelong partners. She is passionate about her profession, dedicated to excelling at teaching students. Her hard work and drive made her grow from a teacher at a small school and become the department head at a 100-Year-old college in Chennai at a young age. As head of the department, managing the internal challenges and coordinating with the education department was tough. But she always posed with confidence while executing any tasks, short in stature but tall in commanding.
She expressed her personality by choosing dresses that suited her and the selection of shades to present herself with dignity.
She went the extra mile to guide students during the weekends. She invited students to our home to coach them either in the dissertations or projects. She is a straightforward academician and wears the cap of a counsellor, a consoler, to help students facing family challenges. She always considered the purpose of her life as a teacher. She never let any attributes come in the way of truth and her convictions. A fundamental principle of an exemplary academician was, essentially, her second nature. Regi never was afraid to speak her mind.
Regi helped me redefine my life by motivating and encouraging me to take on challenges in my career and constantly contributing to my well-being. She was a perfect mother for Meghna, recalling days of teaching life values to the little girl. Regi is a silent philanthropist, and most of the time, we won’t know about her contributions. Many of us would look for her guidance in difficult situations since she had real-life experience solving issues with boldness and courage. She pays attention to details and values the relationship, personal or official.
Kind in nature and stern when it comes to discipline. Gentle and sensitive. Regi loves green landscapes, the trickling sound of small water streams, and waterfalls’ views.
Regi, my beautiful, sweet, darling wife, may you be at peace, and God bless you.
Regi, Missing You!
Remember her, oh my soul, for she is a blessing
Remember her with gladness and gratitude
Remember her with happiness and thankfulness
Remember her with joy and obligation
Tears and sadness will follow me for year’s
My mind may say forget, but my heart will remember her my lifetime
Each day spent with her is a treasure
Let me try to smile each day seeing her in my thoughts
It will not be easy, but I will walk the rest of the days with her on my side!
Regi we know her from her childhood a gentle, loveable and kind person. A good mother and teacher. Very smart with good will power and command . GOD be with her always and she is in our hearts for ever.🍁
Thank you, Roy and family.
God, she is so beautiful sir. I really wish I could have met her when I had the chance. I am sure she will be watching over from the heaven and guide you and Meghna as your guardian angel. Love ❤️
