    Maj Sanjay Sharma and Maj A Francis Xavier

    It is with a sense of deep sorrow that I read the untimely departure of Maj Sanjay Sharma, SIGNALS VETERAN at such an young age.
    GOD has his ways and we are but actors playing the role that has been destined; we can only pray for the departed soul to rest in peace and give courage & strength to Mrs. Kumud Sharma, Kunal and Sanchita.
    It will make me proud to hear from Kunal and Sanchita that they topped the IIT & MBA program, in spite of the set back.
    With best wishes to over come the deep sorrow.

    Very deeply grieved to note the departure of another devoted, humane, friendly, cooperative, understanding, noble veteran from our midst.
    MAJOR A FRANCIS XAVIER, leaves behind a fine lesson to all of us, particularly me by willing " that after his death the body should be donated for purposes of medical research."
    MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE.
    May GOD give strength to Helen and Loreto to bear this irreapaiable loss and to carry forward his ideas and missions that he valued most.
    In deep sorrow, but proud of the opportunity that i had to serve with Xavier in the our great Corps.
    Brig G Natarajan, Signals
