I wanted to share a beautiful moment from the Bay Area that filled my heart with joy and nostalgia. Recently, Chidambaram, Ganesh,Thirumalai Rajan and I reunited after nearly 20 years. What a special evening it was on a Sunday!
We spent two wonderful hours catching up at Kailash Parbhat in Santa Clara, where laughter and memories flowed effortlessly. Later, we continued the conversation at Ganesh’s home nearby. It was heartening to see Ganesh well-settled in the Bay Area for the past two years. Thirumalai and Chidambaram attend family events in San Jose in 2025.
Ganesh first arrived in the USA in 1987, while the rest followed in 1994. I have been visiting the USA for the past 25+ years on Business… As we reflected, it felt like time had flown by — 43 years since we graduated from Madurai Thiagarajar College of Engineering. Looking back, those college days seem like an eternity ago, yet the bond remains as strong as ever.
We shared stories of our journeys, masters specializations, careers, and life’s twists and turns. It feels incredibly good to see how far we’ve all come. Life has been kind. God has been gracious. Our families remain our greatest treasure to cherish and nurture. Of course, as expected at this stage, we also reminded each other to pay closer attention to our health.
These reunions remind us of what truly matters. Grateful for the memories and the friendship that time cannot fade.
Chidambaram, Ganesh, Thirumalai Rajan. Karthik.
