A Gujju family in Gujarat received with sadness the coffin of their dead mother which from the US. It was sent by one of the daughters who settled there upon her marriage. When they opened the lid to pay their last respects, they found a letter on top, which read,
"Dear brothers and sisters, sending our mother's body to you, since it was her wish that she should be cremated in the compound of our ancestral home in Gujarat. I'm sorry I could not accompany her as all of my paid leaves are consumed.
You will find inside the coffin, under Ba's body, 12 cans of cheese, 2 bottles of perfume, 10 packets of chocolates and 8 packets of Badam. Please divide these among all of you. On Ba's feet you will find a new pair of Reebok shoes(size 10) for Mohan. Also, ther! e are 2 pairs of shoes for Champa's and Padmaben's sons, Laloo and Chintu. Hope the sizes are correct. You'll notice that over her sari Ba is wearing 6 American T-Shirts. The large size (with Michael Jordan) is for Mohan and the others are for my nephews. The 2 new Jeans that Ba's is wearing are for the boys. The Swiss watch that Pinky wanted is on Ba's left wrist. For ShantaBen, Ba is wearing the necklace, earrings and ring that you asked for. Please take them. The 6 white cotton socks that Ba is wearing must be divided among my sister-in laws, Kokila, Lalita, and Shanta.
Please distribute all these uniformly and if anything more required let me know, since our Bappa is also not keeping well nowadays.
