Congratulations, Poonam and Manoj-25 Wonderful Years-

10th October, 2008. Marking 25 years and Silver Jubilee Celebrations. Of one of the best couples that I know..

Poonam, a friend for more years than I can count, and one who has been with me through thick and thin...I recall our meeting at the IIMC and bonding- for life....The many hours spent in sharing- anything and everything...Studies, stories,music,outings, shopping,laughter, tears.....

And so much else...The Paneer paranthas, the apples and coffee(?!), heading out to South Ex, and eating Chaat.The innumerable trips to Janpath, for ir-resistable shirts that we didn't really need, but insisted on buying. Movies at Chanakya, followed by lunch at Nirulas...

Laughing at silly jokes, and not being able to stop. Then stopping and starting all over again...

Meeting Manoj for the first time, and knowing that you both were "Made for each other"...Then, now and forever....And knowing that you knew that I did...


And then,your marriage. This day 25 years ago..Probably the earliest amongst all of us(??)

Your Home in Sarvapriya Vihar, which I still consider to be "Almost home...."

Aditi and Madhav, two smart and loving kids.The best that one could hope for.

We wish you well, now and always. And wish that we could have been there....
