Agee Puthumana

Agee, my Love, thank you for having me for 40 years. Your unique contagious smile used to bring light to any darkest room. You are too good to be true. I can still feel you around me. You cannot leave me in the darkness. Thank you for your guidance and support throughout the 40 years of Life with me. I did not have a clue that you will leave me so soon at the age of 62. I need your help to live on this earth. So, please help me. I have tried my best to save your life to continue with me. But God has another plan for you and me. Please forgive me if I did anything wrong without my knowledge to hurt you in any way. Do not worry Agee, my Love, I will see you soon. I missed you dear.

Dear Agee,
Your untimely death has put a whole in my heart. I thought I’ll see you again, when I came back for a visit soon!
Thank you, for always treating me respectfully, always making sure I had a seat in your kitchen. You always were a perfect hostess in our gatherings and feels like a bit of light has gone out from our lives.
Your dedication to teaching is legendary and your skills will be your legacy. I was always proud to tell others that you were a well respected educator in Dekalb County.
You and Joju were blessed to be together for 40yrs. You will now be his guardian Angel.
I miss you already and always will.????
Rest in Heaven, Angel Agee.❤️
Your Sheela Chechi.

Ageechechi, I miss you dear. I still can’t believe your sudden departure from us to Heavenly Father. I will miss your beautiful smile at the door and your greetings “ Vaa Asshe vaa Joy”. You were a good cook and a great hostess in gatherings. Your iconic Masala dosa was yummy. You were a loving wife to my brother and a great mother to Tommy.
Ageechechi, the beautiful, smart and bold educator Rest In Peace!!

Agee Aunty – we will miss you so much. It’s hard to believe that you are gone. Thank you for being so kind and loving to me and everyone around you. Uncle Joju told me that you insisted on attending Charlie’s funeral even though you were undergoing treatment in Newnan at that time. I appreciate your kind words and I am so thankful to have seen you that day. You will not be forgotten! My sincere condolences to Uncle Joju during this difficult time. Rest In Peace!

Agee aunty – I miss your contagious smile and thoughtful conversations. You were a warm soul and welcomed us all into your house for family gatherings. Gone too soon but your memory lives on forever. You’re in a better place now, reunited with your babies. Please give Tommy a big hug for me.

Agee ,It is hard to believe that you are not with us anymore . Thank you for all the support & celeberations we together. You are going to miss dearly sister -in- law no.. ‘sister’ . Especialy your cooking & singing. you are going to be in our hearts & in our prayers always. Rest in peace until we joined.

Oh Agee, you were brave, steadfast and always had a smile. I am so sad you are gone but I know your love is beaming out to George. You are relieved of the pain and heartache but your love is still shining through. I pray its brightness and grace encourages all of us who knew and think of you. Because of your faith, you are another of my real life spiritual heros. You endured so much quietly, gently … and always with a knowing smile.

To Mr George Puthumana and the family:
My deepest condolences and may God wrap his arms around you and the family to give you the strength to live on without your dear sweet Agee! I truly believe she is an angel watching over us all! She was not only a dear friend to me but a surrogate mom to my daughter Alexis! She often referred to as my little sister at work! We were two peas in a pod ! We were like sibblings when we would fuss with each other but by the next day were close as ever! We shared some very good times and we knew almost all members of our respective families! We laughed and sometimes we even cried together! She was an awesome teacher who really cared about her students! She was dearly loved by her students as well as our Open Campus/ Elizabeth Andrews High School family! She was so caring, warm and friendly to all! She will definitely be missed by all of us and we will never forget her! RIP my dear friend! Alexis need you to watch over us!♥️♥️♥️????????????????????????????????

I am in shock that, Agee, you are no longer with us. We were so privileged to have you as a sister and soulmate to Joju for forty years . Thank you for entertaining all of us for our get-togethers and be so gracious and generous. I am sure you have joined with Jacob, Tommy and your father. Please watch over us. We love you and miss you ????!!!

While helping Joju uncle with the slideshow, I noticed how many places y’all traveled and realized that Agee Aunty was able to experience the world more than most people can in their lifetime. Seeing the pictures with Tommy also reminded me how much she loved her children. Even though her life was cut short, and unexpectedly, the one thing that gives me some source of peace is that she is reunited with her kids up in Heaven.

Rest in heavenly peace Agee Aunty.

Agee aunty, you are so deeply missed. I will always remember you asking me at family gatherings, “Did you get enough food, Sophia?!” You always wanted to make sure we were comfortable and happy in your home. You hosted us with so much graciousness, year after year. Your hospitality and kindness made every family Christmas party so incredibly special. I am shocked and saddened that you were called to Heaven so soon, but I am comforted to know you are at peace and reunited with Tommy and Jacob. We all love you so much.

The thing that stands out about Agee Aunty was how great she was at so many things. For starters, she was an amazing mom. I admired how she would listen and try to understand how Tommy felt on things that were important to him. She deeply cared, showed her love and stood by him no matter what. Then there is the way she and Uncle Joju interacted, they were a team, they supported each other, no matter how difficult the task was. Most marriages couldn’t handle the weight they had to endure but theirs was bond that only grew stronger out their hardship.

I knew some of her students at Open Campus, when I was younger. I would proudly say she’s my Aunty, cause I knew what kind of teacher she was. In summery, a lot would say, “Mrs. P is tough but fair and she would care enough to listen me if I can’t understand something”. Despite how tough life got, she never forgot her students.

Anyone who met her, would never forget her smile, her contagious giggle/laugh and her inquisitive mind. After Tommy’s death, her faith, the dedication and strength to continue to care for those around her was both astonishing and inspiring. She truly was a remarkable person. We will miss you, you were what this family needed. I hope you continue to guide us and I pray you’re reunited with your two sons.

Mrs. Puthumana, a was kind, loving and considerate teacher, I had the pleasure of working with her two semesters. She were a jewel to EAHS, and her students. She was truly an Angel. I will miss her dearly, so will the students and staff will also.

Sending light and love. May the beautiful, calm, and regal spirit of Mrs. Puthumana live on. ????

Sincerely,
Shakoora Sabree
