We deeply condole the demise of our beloved Professor G.K.Mathews [formerly Head, Dept.of English, and Warden, Selaiyur Hall, Madras Christian College] yesterday afternoon. (13 January). The mortal remains will be at his house in East Tambaram, till 15 January 9 am, after which the funeral will be held at Emmanuel Marthoma Syrian Church, East Tambaram, (near Tambaram Railway Station) at 10 am on 15 January.
A noble heart with a great sense of humour, he was a trendsetter in theatre, and he was celebrated for his mastery of Shakespeare. Always cheerful, he never gave room for any misunderstanding, and the perfect gentleman that he was, he was adored both for his stylized sense of dressing, and for his scholasticism as well. We, as a Department, condole his death. May this noble heart's soul, which lit up noble minds, rest in peace.
