srDWjlI The Late S. Lakha Singh Ji Digpal 1919- 1986 and<br />
Late Mata ÇJogindar<br />
Kaur Ji Digpal 1918- 1996<br />
S. Lakha Singh Ji Digpal was born in a small village<br />
called Bhadewala (now in Pakistan).in 1919.<br />
He was one of the six children and was the eldest<br />
son of S. Rawel Singh Ji Digpal and Mata Sant Kaur.<br />
Being the eldest he also had many responsibilities<br />
from a very early age in his life. Therefore started<br />
working as a salesman in India selling clothes and<br />
fabrics. In 1936 he was married at the age of 17 and<br />
had five children who were all were born in India. The<br />
oldest, is Harbhajan Kaur, Pardoman Singh,<br />
Harcharan Singh, Kulwant Kaur, and Biant Kaur.<br />
Being the oldest child and with many responsibilities<br />
for the whole family he found making a good living in<br />
India was very tough, so in 1952 decided to come to<br />
Britain and try and make a new life here for himself<br />
as well as for his whole family.<br />
When he arrived in Britain he started selling clothes<br />
here as well. Having a keen interest in the property<br />
business he invested his time and money in to buying<br />
and selling and selling houses. Having setteled and<br />
established him self in UK in 1957 he brought his<br />
entire family over to UK and quickly setteled in<br />
Ipswich with his whole family.<br />
He went on to have three more children who were<br />
born in Ipswich and they were Jaswant Singh,<br />
Harsharan Kaur and Arjan Singh.<br />
Like his Father S. Lakha Singh Ji was a Puran<br />
Gursikh and a very religious man who even had a<br />
Guru Granth Sahib Ji in his own house and was a<br />
daily worshipper.<br />
In 1973 S. Lakha Singh Ji Digpal founded the first<br />
<strong>Gurdwara</strong> in Ipswich where he would recite the Guru<br />
Granth Sahib Ji to the whole of the community on, a<br />
weekly,bases on Sunday as well as on the<br />
celebrations of the Gurus Birthdays as well as to<br />
commemorate their passing away. He remained as<br />
the head priest and the president of the <strong>Gurdwara</strong><br />
when it was in cemetery road as well as Yarmouth<br />
road for many years. Above he is seen reading the<br />
Guru Granth Sahib Ji as well. Now the all of his sons<br />
S. Harcharan Singh, The late S Pardoman Singh, S.<br />
Jaswant Singh, and Arjan Singh as well as their<br />
family are remembering their Mother and father on<br />
25 th anniversary of their father S. Lakha Singh JI<br />
Digpal and 15 th anniversary of their mother Mata<br />
Jogindar Kaur Digpal by having donated an<br />
Akhanpath in their sweet memories, which started on<br />
Friday the 27 th may and Bhog was on the 29 th May<br />
which ended with Ragi Jatha conducting a manhore<br />
kirtan. Lots of money was given out by all the<br />
brothers as well as the are sponsoring this issue of<br />
the Rasala as well and £132 was also sent to the<br />
Rasala by all the sons and Grandsons for which we<br />
would like to thank all of this Digpal family and P3<br />
Would wish to pray for the Soul of the Late S. Lakha Singh<br />
Ji Digpal who past away peacefully on 24 th May 1986 and<br />
Mata Jogindar Kaur Ji passed away on 17 th December<br />
1996 may the Waheguru give them abode at his feets and<br />
may he give lots of courage to the whole of this Digpal<br />
family so that they may bear the lost of their loved ones.<br />
