Vivekh pays tribute to Madurai Ramu thaatha who served food for Rs 10

Ramu S, who runs the Valli Tiffin Centre near Anna Nagar bus stand, Madurai, has passed away. The veteran was known for his simple, home-style meals at his tiffin for less than Rs 10, that too for many years now. Ramu thaatha did not charge any money when he served food to the needy and those who could not even afford that meager sum.
visit to the Vallalar temple in Vadalur had had a great impact on his life.
He was inspired the teaching that one needs to feed the poor and that that was the highest form of worship. He never compromised on the quality of food he served to people. The news of his demise has come as a shock to people in Madurai.
Vivekh wrote on his social media page,” You might have gone, your food might have been digested, but you will live on in our hearts forever. Salute to all those who consider their job, service. “

Ramu’s wife Puranathammal, who had also passed away not long ago, used to serve beggars, the differently abled and destitute.
