Hi Philip

I was saddened to hear the death of another batch mate of ours and tried to add a comment on to your blog repeatedly with no success!

I have not met Viji since we qualified in 1965 but I could well recollect her bubbly and majestic walk during the medical college days.
She was friendly, loud and full of smiles and was humble in spite of her famous and well respected father.

I cannot recollect her attending any of the batch reunions but I used to get news about her from our batch mates in USA intermittently.

She would be sadly missed and our list of the survivors from the famous 300 batch gets shorter and shorter.

Please convey our deepest sympathies to her surviving family.
