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