We are moved by each and every message of love we have received publicly and personally.”

Angad Bedi, remembering his late father, added in his notice, “Thank you to everyone for celebrating his grit, humour and giant heart. It is heartwarming to see how many generations Dad inspired throughout his life. Every day of life was spent in devotion to his family and faith, and in service to his Waheguru. He epitomised living a life that was Nirbhau-Nirvair and we are comforted in knowing that he is with his beloved now.”

“Dad we were blessed to have you as out fearless leader. We will strive to live by your motto – to observe and absorb. Keep guiding us from the great beyond,” Angad Bedi signed off the assertion with these phrases.
