Sachi's Great Grandmother passes away


Sachi's great grandmother, Vasundhara Patwardhan passed away at the ripe age of 93 on September 2nd, 2010. Fortunately, she and Sachi got to meet in 2009 in Pune, India. "Panji", as Sachi calls her, was very enamored with Sachi's carefree spirit, dancing, and soft feet.

Sachi's brother, who will be born in a few weeks, unfortunately will never get to meet a living great grandparent.

I also met with Vasundhara several years back when I visited Pune, India. I had fun in talking with her in my mix of Marathi/Hindi ; we were able to communicate well.
She lived a very happy and long life. She was a distinguished lady.

Last week, I had fun playing with Sachi in the Bay area and dancing and singing with her. She is fun to be around and is superbly intelligent and charming.
