in Ipoh City Council and became one of the pioneer chartered valuers
in this country having successfully completed the Membership of the
Royal Institute of Chartered Valuers examinations. He was later
appointed Director of Valuations, City Council Ipoh. It was a great feat
for him at that time. He always took pride in the fact that he funded
his own education while supporting his family through hard times and
later even after the demise of his father in 1965. Often he recalled
having 2 vadais for lunch to safe up for his exams. He was optimistic
and determined that no amount of hardship deterred him. He was

marriage at Kalamandapam Hall, in Kuala Lumpur on 25th January
1975. It was a gala event even by today’s standards and it was
attended by more than a 1000 guests. They were blessed with 3 lovely
children soon after – Dr. Premela Kasinathan the oldest who is
currently a general practitioner in Putra Care Clinic, Klang, married to
Thavanesan Selvaratnam, the General Manager at Kawalan Perwira

together with my mom who later became a deputy head mistress –
they emphasized on both academic and extracurricular involvement
and the importance of us getting good basics in Tamil, Thevaram,
Sangeetham, Piano and even Tae Kwon Do aside from academic
accomplishments. They saw to it that we received good world class
undergraduate professional degrees and always encouraged us
further with our academic endeavors.

Paripalana Sangam as its Vice President (1989-1999) and President
(1999-2017) for a total period of 28 years. Many evenings he spent on
meetings, fund collection and prayers at the temple. The temple was
completely rebuilt during his tenure as president and he was blessed
to be involved with the Maha Kumbhabishegam on 28th January 2007.
Another favorite pastime he had was his engagement with the
freemason movement in Malaysia via the Kinta Lodge. He derived a lot
of pleasure from its activities and from socializing with its members
who constituted elite society. He was also involved in several other
organizations such as the Ceylonese Association of Ipoh and the Ipoh
Scholarship Fund Board for a good number of years. He was conferred
the Pingat Pekerti Terpilih, PPT in 1978 by Sultan Idris Iskandar and
later Anugerah Mahkota Perak, AMP by Sultan Azlan Shah in 1987 for
his selfless contributions to society.
11
tremendously enjoyed his trips to many other countries throughout
the world over the years and times spent with his family during local
get togethers, trips and vacations too. He enjoyed fast drives on his
volvo cars and later being chauffeured by one of his family members.
He appreciated a wide variety of good food from all over the world
too, especially dining out in Ipoh, for he always had praise for Ipoh
cuisine. At the end, he always preferred being in his home in Ipoh. As
the old adage goes, home is where the heart lies.

A Tribute To Our Dearest Papa…
To your friends and family, you have been a filial and responsible son,
brother, brother in-law and uncle, you have persevered over live’s
challenges, putting duty and family above yourself. You’ve lived long
and well, you were happy and filled with gratitude to the Gods above
for the loving family you were blessed with, your career, your
accomplishments and all the little things that put a smile to your face.
To your beloved wife and children, you were a loving husband and a
doting father. So fine a life you built for us. Took care that harm never
13
got in our way. We were indeed blessed with one fine head of the
family. No one can possibly take your place. Somethings we
sometimes took for granted, classes and tuitions, prayers and temple
visits, great food. Somethings we enjoyed tremendously such as
holidays and trips, parties and outings, even family gatherings. All the
while, you toiled hard and sacrificed much to provide us with nothing
but the best. You spared nothing to give us a good world class
education. Somethings annoyed and upset us like being scolded and
reprimanded occasionally when we went wrong. But, it only made us
stronger and wiser from the lessons learnt.
Not too long ago, you became weary and illness robbed you of your
will. Towards the end, it broke our hearts to see you not quite as
robust and strong as you used to be. However, we believe that God
indeed made you stronger and better than most and finally prepared
you for your new journey back to Siva Lokha when the time came.
The sky poured that evening, when you made your final exit from this
world, and transcended to a better place, to the beautiful gardens of
the heavenly abodes where you rightfully belong. Suddenly, there was
an empty chair in the living room, an empty bed in your room, an
empty spot on the dining table. No one to answer to our calling out for
14
you. But even then our hearts were filled with love and pride for
someone who’s been so dear. Never, did you leave us empty and void.
We believe your soul is healed and whole and freed from all suffering,
ever youthful and vibrant. We pray your onward journey is smooth and
happy and you attain eternal peace.
We miss you, dear Papa ! We miss all those happy times growing up.
Life will never be the same again. We’re adults now and yet when it
comes to bidding farewell, we’re not quite grown up. We’ll always be
your three little musketeers and we’ll always be proud of you, we will
always love and cherish all our good times with you. We will definitely
continue to miss you dearly. We will be waiting to see you again when
God takes us back. Till that time comes, we’ll continue to proudly bear
your name behind ours. We’ll strife to live upto your expectations and
be good professionals, filial children and may we be good spouses and
parents too. May your legacy live on through us, your children and
grandchildren.
We’re sure you’re still watching over us from above, and that you’ll
always be our guiding light. You’ll always be someone very dear to us
and live on in our memories and our hearts. Your advise and guidance
15
will take us through life. We’ll be most blessed if we can live our lives
with as much strength and dignity and pride as our beloved father.

From Keshava Thavanesan (Grandson) and parents, Klang :
KESHAVA'S TAATA !
What makes a man a hero?
I've often thought this through.
Is it someone who is macho?
Is it someone who is true?

From A. Sivanathan (Brother) and A. Indira Devi (Sister
in-law), Seremban :
We are indeed thankful that we had taken the opportunity to make our last
visit to you in July 2020, in between the Covid-19 lockdowns. Now it seems as
if it was like a premonition of never seeing you again. We can recall it was a
visit that was most touching and heartfelt as we just made the time to be
together in good company, good conversation, good food and nothing more
important to attend to.
We are already missing you very much and there is a deep void in our hearts.
The stories of your early life struggles in Chemor and having to shoulder the
responsibility of caring for our mother and siblings will be forever be etched
in our minds. The strong will, dedication and a sense of responsibility is deep-
rooted in your very soul and this was reflected in all your actions and words.
You had to assume the role of the patriach of the family and with that came
20
the many sacrifices you had to make but never complaining because you felt
that GOD had rewarded you in many other ways.
In our hearts you will always be remembered as a great human being- loving,
compassionate and duty bound.

From Uma Devi Gopalanathan, Melbourne (niece) :

example of selfless love and the spark of light , a leader and pillar of strength

your Soul Rest in Peace.
OM SHANTI ! OM SHANTI ! OM SHANTI !
LATE A.GOPALANATHAN’S FAMILY
He was always there for me when I needed a shoulder to cry on. His letters
were very consoling when I returned to college after my father’s death.
He sacrificed a lot for his family. I remember the days when I would wait for
him to come back from work to join him on his walks. We spoke of many
things during these walks. He gave me advice often and joked a lot too. Those
were very happy days. Those Sundays that you came to Sungai Siput to have
fried fish balls are most unforgettable too.
There aren’t many people like you in the world. Mama, we’ll miss you very
much. We love you but God loves you more. I’m sure he has a very special
place for you.

From Lanka Ganesalingam, Canberra (niece) :
In Our Hearts
We thought of you today,
But that is nothing new,
We thought about you yesterday,
And days before that too,
We think of you in silence,
We often speak your name,
Now all we have are memories,
And your picture in a frame,
Your memory is our keepsake,
With which we will never part,
God has you in his keeping,
We have you in our heart.

From Ruckmanidevi Karalasingam (Ruku Gill),
Sydney (Niece) :
24
I also can never forget you or Asai Mama picking me up on some
Fridays after your work in Ipoh and I spent the weekend in Chemor.
Spending time with my grandparents, uncles and aunties was so much
fun as a child.
However great or small, to have you as my uncle was the greatest one
of all. You have helped the whole family in one way or another and
that will always be remembered.
A shining example, my English Mama was the best of humankind.
Love

the left hand. He never let that be an excuse for not living a full life. In fact, I
don't even remember his childlike hand, as he can do everything that I can
do and more. (He can drive a manual car, and change car tyre easily)
Back to the WW2, the family survived and returned to their home after the
war, but the poverty continued. While the rest adjusted to their new way,
my uncle was focused on seeking a brighter future. He knew of the power of
vision, and the Law of Attraction even back then. My mum told me how his
favourite Tamil song was the old classic, "Olimayamana ethirkalam, en
kannuku therikirathu". Translated, it means " A brightly lit future , can be seen
by my eyes". Everytime, the song played, he will rush to the radio, put the
volume up, close his eyes and savour the song.
He was focused on building a good future, not only for himself but his whole
family. He motivated us, guided us, lectured us ...sometimes scolded us. He
would take interest in every one's affair, and will give us his advice on how
we should progress. Sometimes as adults, we didn't always appreciate this,
but we always felt happy to win his approval.
He, together with my other uncles were the main reason why my own family
made it after my dad's death. He was always there for his family members,
through our trials and tribulations, and every event in the family.
He subjected himself to the strict discipline that he expected of others. I used
to think that I can set the clock based on his movements. He was a stickler for
punctuality, and took great care with his appearance. He was always very
neatly, and fashionably dressed according to the occassion. I recall his 3-piece
cream suit with matching cream shoes for his office meetings, his black tux
with bow tie for his Lodge meetings, his bush jackets that were also favoured
by the PM at the time, Dr Mahathir, his stylish batik shirts, and his "jeepa and
veshti" for the Hindu events.
26
He loved the Volvo car , and had a few of them. He was a government servant,
a very respected one. In addition, he was also a community leader and the
temple president.
Above all he was a loving husband and a doting father, and grandfather.
Englishmama, you will be so missed. Thank you for everything thst you have
done for me. From buying me toys as a little kid, giving me money as a teen
and supporting me through the many events in my life. Thank you for being
there for my mother when she needed the help. You are so loved and
respected. Till we meet again in another time. God bless the next phase of
your journey, and may you be enveloped in peace.
Aum Shanthi, Shanthi, Shanthi.

laughing his heart out with him. Growing up I used to fear my uncle.
I remember the days when my mom will take me to see him the
very next day my report cards are out and I still remember vividly
waiting at my grandmother’s house for him to comeback for lunch
from work. The moment I see his yellow volvo turn the corner my
heart would have skipped a few beats. The whole episode of me
worrying turned out to be nothing because his advice was always
“You can do better” and then he will always tell me to carry a small
note book (555 book) with pen so that I can write down stuff to
remember also to take notes of things I remember for later
reference. Thanks to his advises I always try to be a better version
of yesterday. As for the second advise I don’t carry buku 555 but
we google notes for that…Thank you mama for the wise words….my
uncle was and always be our guardian angel…
28
No matter what challenges life had for him, he always had a smile on
his face when solving it. I just want to say that Periayah you must be
proud of what you have built and I hope wherever you are, you are still
looking over us. We promise, we will make you proud and pass down
your values and teachings for generations to come.
To Periamma, Big Akka, Baby Akka and Shan Annai, I promise I will
always be there for you. I love you all so much.

From Pulainthiran Nadarajah, Klang (nephew) :
Uncle Kasi was a gentleman indeed. He had dignified air about him but
exuded warmth and graciousness. I’ve always had memories of him being
polite and friendly. In any meeting with him he will make it a point to inquire
about the well-being of the family. He will go on to encourage us to strive for
the best. We will truly miss his engaging and warm personality.

(friend) :
OM SHANTI !
34
From Datin Chella MSK Sivananthan, Ipoh (friend) :
Time passed like lightning and the next time when I came to meet
him was when my husband took up the position of Consultant Orthopaedic
Surgeon and our paths crossed once again.
I met Kasi again with his dear wife, Rathy who coincidentally
happened to be the sister of my brother, Dato’ Dr. Sivananthan Kandiah’s very
good friend, Dr Ganeson. It is a small world indeed. We moved closely. All
functions, either good or bad in Ipoh, both our families were part of it.
This tribute will not be complete if I do not write about his children.
All three of them were well brought up and have turned out to be good adults
– the girls are doctors and the son is an engineer. It always gave me pleasure
to greet and chat with all. This brings me to write about his better half, Rathy,
now a retired deputy headmistress- an epitome of efficiency, tolerance and
graciousness. May Lord Ganapathy be with Mr. Kasi and help and guide his
family through this period.
35
From Alice Fernandez, Ipoh (former staff and friend) :
A MUCH LOVED BOSS
I remember so vividly my first day at work reporting to my boss Mr. Kasinathan, his
tall stature, broad sunny smile, firm handshake and his friendly “Hello Alice welcome
to the Valuation Department “erased all my nervousness and made me feel
so warmly welcomed. In the 13 years that I have worked with him as my boss I can
safely say that we worked pretty well as a team.
Mr. Kasi as we fondly call him deeply values the people who worked with him, he
treated each one with utter respect no matter their rank. He made everyone feel a
sense of ownership which encompassed elements of respect, trust and commitment
to good work. As a boss, you Mr. Kasi, have always inspired me to think beyond
normal conventions. You have always motivated me to value and express my opinion.
You have always encouraged me to learn and grow. You discovered what I was really
good at, picked that skill and created my job responsibility. Thank you for your faith in
me. You have taught me well,
My past work colleagues will agree with me that Mr. Kasi was humble and
compassionate, akind human being whose favour he granted to anyone who as much
as hinted of being in need. He was a Boss who was always willing to help you out even
if it was not work related, always willing to listen and never short of advice. His fatherly
demeanor immediately springs out to nurture and comfort. We felt comfortable with
him and had a good relationship with him so much so that we were always ready to
go the extra mile whenever he called out for help.
Like everyone else he too had his share of bad days but he never vented his anger and
frustrations on his staff. He is also never afraid to admit his mistakes. That is definitely
not a sign of weakness but of strength and courage and responsibility.
Besides being a good and kind boss he was a loving and devoted husband and a
doting father to his children it was clearly evident from the way he talks about
them that his family was of utmost importance to him. Dear family, may loving
memories sooth your suffering souls. While the weight of loss bears heavily right now,
just as the cold of night breaks for daylight, know that grief too will give way to shining
rays of warm memories of your loved one.
Mr. Kasi, may your soul rest in eternal peace, one with God, who you loved and served
above all else. Certainly the precious memories of you will remain in our hearts
forever.
Alice Fernandez

From The Saminathans’ Family, Kuala Lumpur (friend)
Sincere, kind and caring. Mr Kasinathan had been a life-long friend of our
family, a continuous presence at our most significant events across the years.
A genuine friend, a trusted colleague and a caring elder for my children. It was
Mr Kasinathan whom we could count upon to visit and extend a helpful hand
whenever needed, As an accomplished professional, his advice was often
beneficial in navigating situations that arose. Deepavali was never complete
without a visit to the Kasinathans and the jovial host always brightened the
festival of lights for us. Mr Kasinathan will be dearly missed though he leaves
fond memories and a continuing legacy in his family that we will continue to
cherish. May his soul rest in peace.
37
From Nalini Pathmanathan, Kuala Lumpur (friend) :
Please accept my deepest sympathies on the loss of your dear
husband. He was very dear to all of us, especially my parents.
My father was very fond of him and thought highly of his character and
intellect. Mr Kasi provided great support to my mother as they both
United to build our beautiful Ganesha temple. He is like family to us,
as you are too. It saddens me that I have seen so little of both of you
in the past few years.
He was a great soul and I pray that he will be granted moksha for all
the great things he achieved in life.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.
38
From Mr. Selvarajah Nadarajah, Ipoh (close friend) :
Through thick and thin, Kasi has been a great and caring friend, the
brother to me and others known to him for the many years I have
known him. This unobtrusive brother lived well, loved all those dear
and near to him well and even successfully let it all go with so telling a
smile of contentment on his final day. A truly great soul in our midst,
which we too must slowly but surely learn to let go, for his peace.
