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,

Now as I approach my 90th birthday ( 27 June 2023 ) , I invite you to visit my Digital Avatar ( www.hemenparekh.ai ) – and continue chatting with me , even when I am no more here physically

Subject: Wednesday Sharing

Three days between today and Sunday 28th August 2016 get together at Neral.

Those who have not made up their mind please do so at least by Friday.

In the meantime, here is a letter I addressed to Mr Bjorn Petersen, the first Works Manager of Switchgear Works who had to leave because of Government of India rules re. appointment of foreigners. He left on 31.3.1965 and started his own Company - Dancal India. He lives in Mumbai.

24.8.2016

Dear Mr Petersen:

I am enclosing a copy each of two books where I played the lead role at the age of 74 – (1) Common Humans – Uncommon Humour & Experiences (2) L&T Switchgear & Other Stories – Memoirs of Employees who made Larsen & Toubro Great.

The books are coming to you courtesy Mr G Ramakrishna.

I joined L&T Switchgear Powai on 1.4.1963 as Junior Stenographer reporting to GR.

The cover for the book L&T Stories carries the 50-year old photograph of the farewell party Production Office staff gave you. I could recollect almost all the names. I have very few photographs of my L&T days and this is a prized possession.

My Switchgear pride did not allow me to accept any suggestion for the title of the book – L&T Switchgear & Other Stories. SS96210 is an unforgettable part number for me – the bread and butter product.

You will be happy to know that we L&T-ites are proud of the legacy leaders like you people left for us to emulate. This book is all about that legacy.

With warm regards
