Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

Kirti Mistry reporting ( to his WhataApp group of L&T-ites ) on his visit to my residence on 22-11-22

 


 

Self and Pankaj are really delighted to meet you after many years.

Hats off to your Computer, Technical and General knowledge.

You are mentally sound physically absolutely fit. In fact you are our role model.

We have also enjoyed your hospitality.

Looking forward more and more interactions

 

Self and Pankaj Chothani met Mr. Hemen C Parekh at his residence at Vile Parle this morning.

Very grand, top floor duplex flat with internal lift across floors, and having very nice view.

His granddaughter also stays in the same building and he has privilege of interacting with his 4th generation on an on-going basis.

We presented bouquet to him on behalf of group. We met his wife and daughter-in-law and enjoyed his company and experience over a cup of tea.

Words like blog, Artificial Intelligence, Zoom / Teams, design of websites, search engine, solar panels, etc. were coined by him as if it's in his regular vocabulary list for long.

He shared his experiences and also asked us about our pre-retirement and post retirement activities. We also briefed him about LTVSCG group activities and in turn bonding brought in by PMM.

He has interacted with LTI for a few times to design websites for MSME companies.

He spends 3-4 hrs on computers and attends many calls, at times with Seniors at USA, Australia and few more countries.

While he has gone through bypass surgery almost 20 years ago, his hunger for learning and applying new things is immense and just outstanding.

It was very nice meeting him and we felt very proud of him for being still energetic ex -L&Tite even after retirement and at the age of 90.

We wished him good health and left his house after interaction with him for almost an hour.

He is mentally and physically absolutely fit.

In fact he is one of the Role Model for us

Great personality, still remember HR programs conducted by him. Looks fit n fine.

 

H.C.Parekh is an institution within LT.

I have met him only once at Khar Gymkhana and was super impressed.

Another person who is a great inspiration to me from LT is our former Chief Auditor Mr D.J.Mehta whose mental and physical fitness at 92 puts me to shame.

We discuss everything from Accounting Standards Investments Income Tax and CRICKET.

 

Really great person, When I joined L&T in 1973 , I met him, we all are proud of him and his contribution to L&T,  God will give him energy & Strength

 

While in L&T he was a simple living high thinking person. I have seen him driving his own car when he was GM  while others at his level used to come in shaufer driven car.
