Prakash Singh Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Aug. 7, 2012.
Prakash Singh's wife and teenage children were living in the temple. Recently, they had moved from India to join the Sikh priest in Wisconsin.

Navdeep Gill, an 18-year-old temple member from Franklin, said Singh had rented an apartment nearby and his family was due to move in by the end of the month. Singh's son and daughter will start school soon; the daughter is in high school and the son is going to be a freshman in high school.

As a Sikh priest, Singh performed daily services, which would have included recitations from the religion's holy book, leading prayers and lecturing on how to practice Sikhism.

Gill said Singh had a fun-loving personality — "telling jokes and whatnot" — and looked nothing close to his age of 39.

I had the honor to meet your wife and children at gurudwara and at Chachiji's home. While they are in mourning at this time, know that they will make you proud as they grow up into educated and purposeful adults. We are indebted for your sevadari for the past decade and it is unfortunate that you reunited with your family only few months ago for something like this to occur. You will be missed by many, and while I did not have the honor of meeting you, your memory lives on in your wife and children. waheguru ji ka khalsa, waheguru ji ki fateh.

May God bless and keep his babies. They were truly blessed to have such a loving and funny father. The greatest legacy and tribute would be for the children to carry on his joy to their children and so on. We are prayer for all of you. Hate will not swallow us all up.
