DEATH IN THE NAANJAI JACOBSONS FAMILY
PASSING AWAY OF MARY CRUZ ISAAC 1927-2011
With profound grief we regret to record the death of Mrs Mary Cruz Isaac at the age of 84 at Madurai on 3rd June 2011. Earlier she was hospitalized for sickness at Sooryia Hopital Vadapalani Chennai.
She was ailing for sometime and was with her youngest daughter Christy who is Head Nurse at MIOT hospital Chennai. Only the earlier day on 2nd June was transported to Madurai for further care. However, she passed away at 3.30 pm on 3rd June 2011 at Madurai. Later the body was moved to Manamadurai for final rites. She was to be buried along with her spouse Mr David Isaac son of Thaveethu, son of Samuel, son of Jacob, the grand old man and founder of Nanchankulam Village Tirunelveli Dist.
She is survived by her daughters and sons.
1. Daughter Rani, Vaiyapuri, married grand daughter Devi
2. Son Francis Xavier, Fatima selvi, grand daughters Cheryl Immaculate and Linda
3. Daughter Lilly Josephine, Joseph Anand grand children Babu and Priya
4. Daughter Philo, Joseph Danaswamy grand daughter Angel Jayamary
5. Daughter Teresa, Grand daughter Rosa Mystica
6. Son Arul John David, Amala Grand son Anto
7. Daughter Christina Sagaya Mary and grand daughter May Evangeline
Cruza was born and
brought up in Colombo (Ceylon) though a native of Thuriayur near Kailasapuram Tirunelveli Dist. Her brother Arul Madhu retired Jailer in the Tamil Nadu Jail Services passed away long ago. He lived in his native village Thuriayur after his retirement. She was a teacher in the Surya Narayana Sastri (SNS) School, Manamadurai and eldest daughter-in-law of Thaveethu. As Thaveethu worked as a teacher in Free School and died at a young age at Penang Malaysia, Mary, later Mary Swaminathan, eldest of the siblings, brought them up and settled in Manamadurai.
On 4th June 2011 the funeral mass was held at the Manamadurai R C Church and was attended by her sons, daughters, daughters-in-law,
sons-in-law, grandchildren and host of relatives and friends. Later she was interned in the R C cemetery along side her spouse David Isaac.
Thus the three sons and their spouses of Thaveethu of Nanchankulam Village Tirunelveli Dist finally laid to rest. Each was buried along with his spouse - a rare blessing indeed in these modern times. May their generation give thanks to the life and times and praise the Lord. May they continue to intercede for their children and their children’s children and their progeny for ever with the Lord Jesus.
Lord we thank you for giving us them as our parents.
With eternal gratitude and supplication
