Introduction
The short episodes about the Bengali ladies whom I have written do not appear in any particular order. They are my mother, my own kakimas - Thakur Kakima, Choto Kakima and Mona Kakima - and twelve other ladies whom I affectionately called Kakima, Mashima and Didima. This book is about the wonderful meaningful lives they led and the affection and care they gave their children and the people who were a part of their lives. I hope you will enjoy reading this simple narration and remember them with respect and love. I admire them all for their unique talents and their affection for people. They have wonderful families and their caring, fortitude and labour of love have been the cornerstone of the Bengali Community. The spirit of these, "legends of love" continues to live on.
