Percy on the move...

59er Percy Mistri and his beautiful wife, Frainy, continue their journey westwards.

Yet again, he has given this eastern territory a miss.

I had this great email from him, which made me feel just wonderful:

Hi Jacob,

I am sending these photographs that were taken yesterday when we visited Jack.


Jack and Percy - their common love - JAZZ.


59ers Jack and Percy with Percy's wife, Frainy.


Jack's wife, Toni, Percy's wife, Frainy with 59er Percy.

We had a very delightful time with Toni and Jack.

And all this thanks to you !!!

Also with due thanks to you we met Ellis and Haya Hyeem...............Sorry no PICTURES THERE .........FROM ME ...................AS I FORGOT TO TAKE MY CAMERA.

We are here in San Mateo for a month and a half, so let me know if there is anybody from our class nearby also in Chicago as we are due to go there too..................I have some work there ................

Hope you guys are well.

All the best

Cheers

Percy

As can be understood, Percy and Frainy met with 59er Ellis Hayeem and his wife, Haya, in New York and then met with 59er Jack Haskell and his wife, Toni, on his trip to US.

We have several other 59ers in the US. Besides Ellis and Jack, Armeane Choksi, Arvind Thadhani, Narayan Acharaya, Noel Ezekiel, Peter Miovic and Vikram Savara, are just a few among the lads out there that come to mind. If you can meet up with Bala's wife, who also may be somewhere in the California region, that would be just great.

I understand there are many of the 59er gals also there.

And if you are proceeding north of the border, you have the chance to meet 59er Hasnain Chinwalla, and through him a lot of our crowd in Toronto including our Physics teacher Willie Shiri and Narsys (née Irani) Punthakee.

Hope you continue to have a great time there just when our 59ers in Mumbai are having a Mini Reunion this Sunday to meet with Trevor Newnes who is on a fleeting visit to the western cities of Mumbai and Pune. the following 59ers are likely to be present at the mini reunion: Adi Cooper, Anil Ruia, Ashok Kapur, Ashok Ruia, Elijah Ooky Elias, Naubir Mohindar, Ratan Singara, Trevor Newnes, Venkat Kurma, Vijay Nayar, Vijay Shivdasani, Vikram Kamdar, Viney Sethi and many of their better halves,

Several Mumbaites are missing at this mini reunion, eg., Percy and Nihal Kaviratne are gallivanting around the world!

I am enjoying all these reunions in absentia, especially as I know all of you have both Annikki and me in your thoughts whenever you meet.

Have a great time, guys and gals, and do let me have those photographs.
