Two other stalwarts of Old Faridabad and of course my father's best friend. Dr. Lakshmi Datt Sharma. and his father Pandit Krishan Datt Sharma. As i mentioned previously in the narrative. Great sons of the city had Piyaoo named after him. Our morning walks were not complete without stopping at the baag and piyaoo and temple. Dr. "Lakha" as uncle was dearly called showered his love on me the youngest son of his best friend.

Pamdit Krishan Datt's Mango Orchard is gone but a street is now named in his memory.
