ANNIKKI - Daughter-In-Law

Mother-in-law  Father-In-Law

    Annikki's relationship to both her parents-in-law were of great respect and love. Ammachi, who opposed our marriage till the day we were married, wrote to us the day after where she said "What God has joined together, let no man put asunder". Both my parents reciprocated Annikki's love. My mother once told me that if I had married an Indian girl I would have been left high and dry very early in the marriage as she saw how much Annikki, facing all the hardships of living in a foreign country tolerated my constant work related travel and long periods away from home when she was struggling to bring up four little children. Annikki was a loved and respected daughter-in-law.
