My beloved mother's death anniversary

According to our Uttaraadi Mutt Almanac, today is the death anniversary of my beloved mother. As in every year, I got the Shraadha (Death anniversary ceremony) performed for her. 

Until year before last, I and my beloved brother used to perform it together.

A few priests at the ceremony venue inquired about my brother; I had to reply that he is no more, with a heavy heart. When I tokd them that my bekoved sister also passed away, they said that they felt sad.

Krishnam Sarva Mayam🙏.
