I have seen a photo of Maggiemamma carrying both me and Leela standing in Hailey Lane Delhi, where she lived with mummy and daddy and was studying at an elite college called Lady Irwin College. I was to later do my university studies here too.
I heard from Leela that after her Diploma in Home Science Maggie mama and Leela went to Kerala and stayed with Valiammachy and Valliapachen at Theepany for a year. Maggiemama taught sewing at Nicholson school and later married Mathukuttychayan who was an eligible bachelor with an Engineering degree. We used to visit Maggiemama at Pallom where Mathukuttychayan was posted.
I came to know Maggiemama well after mummy came to live in Amalloor and mathukuttychayan and Maggiemama lived at kuttapuzha. After appachen´s death mummy was alone and Maggiemama and Mathukuttychayan took care of her and visited her.
Maggiemama had a great sense of humour and took off on everyone including mathukuttychayan with his fetish for cleanliness. Her 3 sons - Thomachen, SAJAN and Thambi used to entertain us when we visited them with their Radio Kuttapuzha commentary of our visit.
Maggiemama was very important to mummy and later to me. I visited her and chatted with her while helping her in her kitchen. Those were desperate days when I was still not married despite efforts of all to bring eligible and ineligible bachelor´s to our notice.
I write what I recall vividly. Mercy was the beauty with voice of a bird, who later married Abbi and went to live in Mumbai. Sajan became a Naval Architect, Thomachen an Orthopaedic surgeon and Thambi an Associate Professor at St Stephens College in Delhi.
Mercy , Abbi and their children, Rajiv and Rita are in Canada at this moment. I should be visiting and staying with them in Toronto in July 2018, when I go there for a Sociology Congress.
