What to say, Sunitha, Ann, Alan and Anna… I am still unable to believe the heartbreaking news we heard last Sunday from Sunitha.
When I first saw Manoj 38 years ago at Sacred Heart College, Thevara, he became my best friend, and that relationship grew into a brotherhood. Our families also became very close. We studied, played, and slept in his small room at the Thevara house in Kochi. Our mothers served food for us on a single plate. Whenever I had difficulties, he was there to hold my hand and console me. Our families shared prayers together.
Our last call was on 25.12.25. Liza and I are often weeping here. We convey our thoughts and prayers from Ammu, Appu, Jose, Annie, Echachan and Amma. Mentally and spiritually, we are there with you in Canada.
He was such a nice and kind-hearted person, as many have said and experienced. The Almighty loved his nature and called him to his hevenly home so early. Jesus love all of us, dear Sunitha and our dear children, and only he can help us pass through these sorrowful days.
Our love and prayers will continue.

Rest in Peace, Manoj.
He made my work days brighter. He will certainly be missed.
Dearest Sunitha, Ann, Allan and Anna,
There are few words to express our sorrow for your deep loss. Sunitha, your words on Sunday continue to ring in my ears as you let me know that your dear husband had gone to Heaven. Of that we have no doubt. May our compassionate God welcome Manoj home. Be strengthened in knowing that together you created a life that is rooted in all that is good and beautiful and true in God’s name.
Ann, Allan and Anna, our hearts go out to you. Your valiant presence at Mass on Sunday was a loving testimony to the radiant seeds of faith that have been nurtured by your parents. May Christ continue to strengthen you in the days and years ahead.
May God who goes before you; lingers behind you; and dwells within you bring you peace.
With deep regret, we will not able to attend Manoj’s funeral tomorrow but we continue to hold you all close in our prayers. We will see you soon.
Sincerely,
Jeanné-Marie and Enzo Morson
My deepest condolences to the family. May God grant you strength during this incredibly difficult time.
Manoj and I were batchmates in Mechanical Engineering at Nitte. He was not just a classmate, but the heart of our basketball team, both coaching and playing with passion.
He had an infectious, exceptional smile and a demeanor that immediately put everyone at ease. I fondly remember when I visited Canada; he drove a long way just to reconnect with me and our Nitte friends for lunch, where we laughed hard sharing old college memories. He will be deeply missed.
RIP brother.
I was very sad to hear about the passing of Manoj. He was a wonderful person; so kind, friendly and hard working! CP Rail was so lucky to have him! My condolences to his family and friends. May Manoj rest in peace. 🙏🏻
It is with sorrow that we give our condolences to the family. He was an honest and hardworking man caring and providing for his family.
He will be missed by all who knew him and will remain both an inspiration and a beacon for his children to pursue their dreams.
My condolences to his family and loved ones. May his soul rest in peace 🙏🏽💐
Rest in peace dear friend!

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time. May God give you strength and peace.
Words fail to express the depth of our sorrow, yet we stand firm in faith. We know that our true homeland is not here, for we seek the city that is to come. In this hope, we trust that Manoj has now entered the rest prepared for him by the Lord.
Dear Sunitha, Ann, Allan, and Anna, today I offer the Holy Mass for the repose of Manoj’s soul and remain spiritually united with you. May the Lord welcome him into His eternal dwelling among the saints, and may He grant you peace, consolation, and heavenly comfort in this time of mourning.
Rest in peace Sir. My condolences to the family.
Sending many prayers to your family at this very difficult time.
It was always such a pleasure speaking with you both during parent-teacher interviews when Allan was in my class. I hope you find some peace in the memories that were shared and comfort knowing that you have an angel by your side.
Wishing you continued strength in this time of mourning.
