Mr. Kochappachan Padannamakkel (New Delhi)) is an honorable craftsman for his dedicated hard work and the research for our family publication. The book includes stories of family members and descriptions of the political and historical events of the time. This has thousands of entries and was bought and catalogued by the New York Public library as well as many of members of family in India. Modern technology and the Internet made my " search to study the very advantageous past ". However, much of my work is based on the work of Kochappachan who spent many years of his life, seeking the history of the families of Padannamakkel. Kochappachan is a friend in need and the accomplishment of deed for all the members of family. The greater Delhi is too small for him for his service in the company of his relatives and friends. He is a good workman and brain for several of his projects, with brilliant ideas and theme. He spent his time and efforts, therefore money, but from the middle of his not finished tasks, he always escapes from his initial plans and left to conceive another new arrangement of the projects.
