Dedication in memory of my father
Prof. G.R. Ranganatha Iyer
(June 26, 1922(cid:1)October 30, 2019)
Chief Engineer & Joint Secretary (Retd), Govt. of Gujarat
Professor of Civil Engineering, L.D. College of Engineering, Gujarat
University & Technical Advisor, World Bank
He has been a fountainhead of knowledge, inspiration, philosophy,
and an excellent disciple of spiritual learning; a noble soul radiating
love and warmth; he has left behind a rich harvest of memories to
cherish, honor, and emulate. He was a magnanimous presence, an
endearing soul who spread happiness and love with his brilliant smile
and words of encouragement. We pray for his soul and salute him for
his foot prints on the sands of time! We will remember him in every
moment in every walk of our lives, as we continue to be inspired by
him, forever. People of his kind never die!
