[Vatsal]

A Patel family in Gujarat was puzzled when the coffin of their dead
mother arrived from the US. It was sent by one of the daughters. The
dead body was very tightly squeezed inside the coffin, with no space
left in it When they opened the lid , they found a letter on top
addressed to her brothers and
sisters:

Dear Chandrakantbhai, Arvindbhai, Mohan and Varsha,

I am sending Ba's body to you, since it was her wish that she should
be cremated in the compound of our ancestral home in GUJARAT. Sorry, I
could not come along as all of my paid leave is consumed.

You will find inside the coffin, under Ba's body, 12 cans of cheese,
10 packets of Tobler chocolates and 8 packets of Badam. Please divide
these among all of you. On Ba's feet you will find a new pair of
Reebok shoes(size 10) for Mohan. There are also 2 pairs of shoes for
Radha's and Lakshmi's sons. Hope the sizes are correct.

Ba is wearing 6 American T-Shirts. The large size is for Mohan. Just
distribute the rest among yourselves. The 2 new Jeans that Ba's is
wearing are for the boys. The Swiss watch that Reema wanted is on Ba's
left wrist.
Shanta masi, Ba is wearing the necklace, earrings and ring that you
asked for. Please take them off her.

The 6 white cotton socks that Ba is wearing must be divided among my
nephews. Please distribute all these fairly.

Love
Smita Patel

PS : And if anything more required let me know soon as Bapuji is also
not feeling too well nowadays...
