Our father Shri. M. A. Narayana Vadhyar(Nana Vadhyar) came to mumbai in the year 1957.He temporarily settled down in Matunga Bombay(as it was known then), in a bachelors accomodation(Buddha Nivas -It still exists).From there he would go to perform his daily duties as a religious priest.He had his family which consisted of his mom & dad(our grandparents),younger brother, wife(our mom)& 2 kids (my elder sisters)back in Kerala(Peruvumba). Later he shifted to a small rented house in Chunabhatti Bombay along with one of his colleagues. His main area of operation was Matunga, Khar & Mulund.
He was one of the best in his profession, so people from allover Bombay approached him for his services.He was joined by our mom & my elder sister who was only an year old then(somewhere around 1961).After about 3 years my elder brother was born.As our family grew he shifted to Kurla Mumbai.There my mom gave birth to my elder brother(1966),my elder sister(1968), & me (1972). He had to struggle really hard to support a family of seven in Bombay, his parents & my 2 elder sisters in our native place. He gave us all decent education in good schools. My elder sister had to quit education to lend him a hand in supporting our family. Gradually we shifted to Thane as the family grew.From there he would wakeup early in the mornings and commute by local trains & buses to his place of work. Both my mom & dad (my elder sister aswell)have put in all their efforts so that we could lead a good life. He got all my sisters married to decent families as he grew in his profession.
He worked all his life till the last minute. He started experiencing severe pain in the chest & had to undergo an Angioplasty(July 2008). While he was in hospital he underwent a full body scan. It was only then we came to know that he was in his advanced stage of liver metastases. Finally he left for his heavenly abode on 4-10-2008. It was the most unfortunate day in our lives. We all Pray to god for him.
MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE !
