A star in Oriental Insurance retires !
Tall in stature,
smiling demeanour, cheerful attitude, confidence personified, confidentiality
keeper, wise – most admiringly pleasant and friendly always.
A peaceful
happy retirement is most desired and He fittingly has one. In every
Organisation, people come & go – there are always some who make a special
impact. Ranga has impacted so many ‘Oriental
colleagues’ and many outside too.
Those who have had interaction with affable S. Rangarajan will
cherish ever – he was always a simple person with exceptional wisdom - at
whom we admired and wondered. Proud to
know him much before his joining Oriental in 1983 (our TP Koil Street
Triplicane acquaintance – and knew him as he worked for Kothari)
In general, those in
Personnel (HR) become good in rules – Ranga was good in humanity. Those who occupy the seats of PA (to AGM
/Managers) would get to know everything that happens in Office – Ranga would
knew and for sure would not reveal anything outside, yet would help people in
every need. .. .. and from such a
background he gained fabulous knowledge and was so good when he moved to Technical
Departments too, is his forte. An asset
to the Organisation – he rose to become one most sought after by colleagues,
officials, in-charges, those outside the Region and ofcourse Agents, Corporates
and insuring public. Many retired / resigned employees would vouch
and feel happy that their passage was made smooth by the help that Ranga gave.
Outside, he was
a brilliant sportsperson – be it Cricket, Table tennis, Chess, Carrom and .. ….
… ‘rummy’ – he revelled to be a Master]
His greatness remained in
being simple, not ridiculing anyone, helping everyone and being friendly with
one and all.
I have enjoyed and
savoured every moment of being with him and today feel happy in his peaceful
retirement, being celebrated and given a grand farewell. Ranga, you deserve a great place, must have reached a much exalted
position in career - and you are
very strongly and emotionally etched in our hearts.
All the best
and praying our Emperuman Sri Parthasarathi for continued happiness and good
health to you and your family.
Your admiring fan and pal. – S. Sampathkumar
