A tent was pitched outside, a fire was built to balance
cold, ample preparation was made to bid befitting farewell to our Vice
Principal Kanjur Wangdi. But, many of us failed to notice this beauty as our
eyesight was blurred by the whirlpool of tears. Most of our eyes were also
fixed at Lopen enchanted by his words when he was informally sharing the story
of how he started his career, how he dragged on through thick and thin, and how
he finally reached his retirement age.
Adding 9 years of his stay here, VP has served in different
schools of our country for the last forty two years. He had a Ulyssian story to
share, ‘wherever I stayed - I was supported, loved, consulted by everyone –
respected and was respected – I retire now surrounded by blankets of friends’.
To authenticate VP’s words, he is looked up to as point of
reference by everyone and treated, given the rarity of his quality, as almost precious
gem in our school. As VP he was shrewd administrator, as friend he was perfect,
as teacher he was flawless and as person he was exemplary.
Baylling HSS formally waved farewell to our wholly contended,
free of regrets, and much admired VP on 24th October 2012. Au
revoir, Lopen!
