“I appreciate your team writing about my dad. My dad passed away on Monday, July 20th, 2020. In spite of knowing there is a danger lurking in their area where a lot of COVID-19 positive patients were reported, he went on rendering them emergency services in his own hospital, where very, unfortunately, he caught the infection.
“My dad was ever cheerful, big-hearted, and friendly. You could approach him with ease and in no time, you would sense the warmth of positivity and friendliness; like you have known this person for ages. I have been getting messages from his peers/colleagues/friends, and all have echoed the same point; Dad loved me the most.
“My request is to please use the attached picture in the post. I was unable to talk and visit my dad due to the pandemic and to get some closure I feel it will be the right thing to do is use his picture in your post.”
Person Matters Web Team: We are sorry for your loss. In fact, his demise is a loss to the whole society. We have changed his picture.
