Nirankar Narula ~ Class of 1970

Departed October 2005 ~ Cancer

 

 

 

 

 

From Valerie, Nirankar’s widow:

This is a brief summary of Nick’s life after ISB.

Nick left BKK to go to Fresno State University. A year later when then Governor Ronald Reagan raised tuition for foreign students he left California for Houston, Texas to attend University of Houston. He graduated in 1975 with a degree in business. In 1979, we married in Houston and lived here until his death. We have 2 daughters. We have our own business which designed and imported our own label of clothing called Casey Coleman. The clothes were manufactured in BKK and India.

The entire family would visit BKK every summer for business and pleasure. Nick’s family still lives in BKK and was also involved in the production of Casey Coleman. Every year as a family we traveled to a new destination in Asia and Europe which Nick and I really loved to do. We were able to create so many memories with our girls.

In 1999, while traveling in Australia, Nick began noticing sinus congestion that continually worsened. By December, he was diagnosed with a rare sinus nasal cancer. He went for treatment here at M. D. Anderson hospital in Houston. The treatments were able to help him live with cancer for 6 years. During those years when he was well we continued to work and travel as a family like in past years. Nick kept up with circle of friends that he met while at U of H as well as many other friends from around the globe. He believed he was a citizen of the world.

The girls and I have been able to keep our yearly travel plans that remind us of our family adventures with Nick.

With best regards,
Valerie

I came across your website http://www.mekongbrothers.com/ while doing an online search of my mother’s name, Sally Smeltzer Hopkins. She should have been ISB class of ’70, I believe.

So that you may update you listing she did pass on December 20, 1997 in San Antonio, TX from complications from a medical procedure.

I am her son Trevor Hopkins.

Thanks.

Larry Peter Moore ~ Class of 1970

Departed ~ 1979

Larry was in the military for a few years and when he got out he was planning on going to an institute for the study of photography. Then he came down with lymphoma he passed away in 1979. I believe he was 27 years old. So young. He had a beautiful voice for singing.
