Bhai Gurnam Singh Reading left for heavenly abode on the 13th August 2009. Bhai Sahib was very old and had been in hospital for a couple of weeks.
Bhai Sahib had dedicated his life to Gurbani and spent years as a very active sevadaar in the sadh sangat. Bhai Sahib would sit through many Rainsbhais enjoying the laha of Gurbani while doing his niskam seva.
Bhai Sahib was one of the founding members of Akhand Kirtani Jatha UK when in it was set up in 1976. Bhai Sahib did seva as its General Secretary from then until 1995. Bhai Sahib was highly educated and held a good position in his working life, but always remained humble.
Bhai Sahib helped many Sikhs in the early days who had issues of keeping rehit in work places, such as dastaar, kirpan, etc. He was a very capable community spokesperson.
He would often reminiscence about how blessed he was to have spent so much time in sangat of Guru Sahib and his Gursikhs.
During the past few days sehaj paaht and kirtan has been taking place at Bhai Gurnam Singh Ji's residence.
Kirtan takes place from 1815 to 1945 every day.
