Vaheguru ji ka khalsa, Vaheguru ji ki fateh,
Today I received an email in my inbox, without doubt it was so sad to hear that Veer Nirmal Singh from Birmingham had passed away, his personality and sevaa was one of a gursikh who really understood the youth of the west and what they needed to help them stay on the path of sikhi and progress..I was fortunate to have met Veer Ji at Khalsa Camp just last year, he had just attended another Gursikhs antam sanskar (Bhai Mani Singhs Ji).. Veer Nirmal Singh was in higher spirits than I could have imagined, he talked about how the cancer was wearing him down and leaving him with no or little energy but the conversation we had was full of so much energy, almost make's me smile thinking about how veer ji knew the cancer will eventually win but was so concerned about the state of youth bodies in the UK the state of AKJ UK Youth, the state of BOSS youth... I jokingly said "do you really need to worry about these things in your current health", he laughed and said "I can't change a habit of a life time".... Veer ji will be remembered by many for his energy, sevaa, parchar, leadership, and many other attibutes which people like me could only dream of having... he was a sant siphai, a parcharak, a speeker of truth... he would not mix his words or try to be politically correct, he callled it as he saw it and didn't worry about people's feelings, perhaps that is why many youth reacted to his talks in a very positive manner...may sache pathshah bless his soul with nivaas in his charan kamal.. help his family and friends to accept his bhana and bless other souls that have learn't from him to carry on his good work....
Veer ji also had the blessing of being a true panthic sevadar though he had many friends in all jathebandis he would go everywhere to do his talks and parchar, mingle with many who some would say "why bother with them, they are a lost cause"... such are the gunns that every gursikh should have
