Dr Arumaiturai Sivapalan
Your family was ‘the centre of universe’
Your love, devotion, dedication, and
Selflessness have earned
You an elevated place in their hearts.
You will never be forgotten!
As a man of science
You were an embodiment
Of absolute positivity and determination!
Your contributions to science
Have been well documented.
Siva, you have certainly left
Your footprints in the sands of time!
You had placed systems and procedures
In place, to benefit your colleagues.
To this day, they hold you in high esteem!
The recipients of your charitable
Contributions remember you
With sincere gratitude and appreciation!
They will carry a ‘torch’ for you
For the rest of their lives!
Your determination to face
The debilitating illness, which consumed
Your being was admirable.
You fought courageously
Without a whimper of complain.
You will be remembered
For your “thumbs up” sign
Which signified your courage,
Your resilience and your will
To remain strong in the face of adversity!
Rest in peace Dr Siva
You have carved a special place
In all our hearts.
