Really a sad news.

I remember Ram Thapa as a singer, a musician, a teacher and a father of a friend.

Back in the school, I enjoyed-as much as I enjoyed bunking his classes-the tunes that he thought us. Till date,  I still  find myself humming the funnuest song ever, "Chewing gum Chapaudai, maaya timlai parkhi baasey jheegha dhapaudai," that he thought us back in the school days.

I still have memories of teasing his son--who passed away few years ago--with Ram Thapa's song "thok na madal thok, sano maaya ko khaacho cha, maauka parey thook!!"

Ram Thapa sir might be dead, but he will live among many of us with his music and memories that he left behind.

"rinke-bung ko rango lai, chunke-bung ko chulesi le, taplejung ma takera ,kalebung ma katera, devi deuta bhakera, phulai laula kesari, khaula besari"

May his soul rest in peace!!
