Deeply saddened and shocked hearing of your father’s passing.

I got to know him at the Oberoi where we trained together and being from BCS, myself albeit a few years later,
we had a wonderful bonding.
Randy was a diamond of a person and his warmth, sincerity and hospitality unforgettable.
I remember when we travelled together with my fiancé in his famous fiat, listening to Cat Stevens all the way from Delhi to his farm
and he introduced us to his famous kinnoos oranges. I think we gorged ourselves a bit too much.

I was a year junior and Randy was such a genuine mentor and guide as we ploughed through the Oberoi hotel
school mill. Whenever in a jam Randy could always be counted upon.

May his soul rest in peace and God give the family strength and wisdom in this time of loss.

Akers N.K.

Once Vijay Pawa, the biggest heart in our family,  gave  it away in friendship he would forever remain solidly steadfast loyal and true. My daily prayers now includes Jatinder Singh to rest in peace and my condolences go out to the family.
Thank you.

Respectfully,
NP Pawa

We were in the same “gang “ when aged 8-10 : Sibia, Huppy Grewal, S.S Grewal and I.
We met at his home at 11, Teen Murti Lane Delhi in the “hols” and biked all over New Delhi, in the days there was no traffic. We played cycle polo in the Sunder Nagar lawns with Guljit Kochhar. We boxed each other in the School Gym. We were in the Colts Hockey team together.
We looked forward to his hospitality at the Oberoi Hotel for many years.
Then he married Pinky, my wife’s class fellow and room mate at St Bedes. We stayed in touch for most of our lives.
Wonderful chap. Salt of the Earth.
Govi
