R.I.P. mmmjgm (Manish Merchant) & Hillram (Ram Kiran)

DicKy · 29th December 2021, 12:07

May their souls attain moksha. Pray their families cope up with the loss.

Though hillram is a Fiat enthusiast, I remember him for his old Japanese car collection. The old Corolla and Corona, especially the Corona. I remember not being enthusiastic about the light stickering work he did to the Corona then, but now a little wiser, I appreciate the period look those side stickers gave

, especially when I see some newer cars like the Ignis carry it very well.

Sad news.

May their souls rest in peace.

May God give Shanti to the Aatma of Manish and Ram and give strength to their family members to bear the loss. Om Shanti.
I always admired Ram for his passion to maintain so many vehicles in pristine condition.
He once replied to me as well that he keeps the wheels rolling to maintain so many vehicles.
A valuable loss of this forum!!

Both are extremely sad news to absorb and I was in touch with Manish on and off and last talked to him a couple of months back. Life is so unpredictable.

Rest in peace brothers Manish and Hill Ram. Om shanthi and may the almighty give your family and friends to navigate through this tough time.

Heartfelt condolences to both their families. May they rest in Peace.

Had met Manish and he was in touch over Facebook on and off. Rather shocking to hear such news.

Sad news.

Rest in peace brothers Mr. Manish and Mr. Hillram.

This is sad and shocking. The phrase "life is unpredictable" gets amplified multiple times which you see such perfect healthy and normal individuals going so suddenly.

Om Shanti. May they both attain moksha. May their families have the strength to go through these tough times. It is the good memories which will keep them going on in life now!

Very sad to hear this - though I do not know them personally but have seen a lot of posts from Manish and Ram (especially on Fiats and scooters). May their soul rest in peace.
