Sikhs to join in Dr. King’s Memorial Service on Feb 22
WSN Bureau

CALIFORNIA: Achurch memorial service with Sikh participation will be held on Sunday 22 February from 2 pm onwards at the First Congregational Church, near UCSC, celebrating the life and times of scholar par excellence Dr. Noel Q. King. 

Alongside family and friends, Sikhs of the region are being coordinated by his long time associate and student Dr. Tarlochan Singh Nahal, who would be reading the Sikh prayer in English at the memorial service for the benefit of the non-Punjabi gathering at the memorial service. 

Dr. Noel Q King passed away on 1 February at his home in California. 

Family, friends, students and associates would be displaying photographs with the renowned scholar, which will be placed on the NQK (cork-) Board of history at the First Congregational Church located at 900 High Street, Santa Cruz, CA. 

Adequate space for parking is available and for persons having accessibility issues, you can drive straight up from the entrance into the upper parking lot. 

The University of California, Santa Cruz has set up a Noel King Memorial fund dedicated to the study of the world’s religions. All interested to donate in his honour are requested to make checks payable to UCSC Foundation (with King’s name as the memo) and despatch it to Liz Sandoval in the Humanities Dean’s Office. 

All those who knew Dr. King and his work would be there. Members of the Sikh Sangat who would more information, may contact Dr. Tarlocahan Singh Nahal at nahal99@yahoo.com.
