I am sad and shocked to hear the news of the death of ever respectable Sri P.S. Sambasivam Sengunthar, Ex. Chief Trustee of Velleeswarar Temple and Ex. Secretary of T.S.S. Nidhi, Mylapore. He was all along very simple and unassuming. He was a ferocious reader of books and knowledge-quest for ever. He was also a good speaker and writer on various topics both in English and Tamil. He is ever remembered for his kindness, compassion and charity without publicity. May his soul rest in peace.
