With a heavy heart we inform the devotees that His Grace Purnacandra das,disciple of Srila Prabhupada, left this world today in Sri Vrindavan Dhama.He leaves behind his wife, Premila devi das, and two sons, Balarama andKrsnendu. Purnacandra performed many valuable services for ISKCON since he joined at Mayapur in 1976. He served in the early days of Padayatra, and then settled in Vrindavan to become the temple head pujari, Vice-President,and internal auditor at different intervals over the years. He was also a teacher at the Bhaktivedanta Swami Gurukula for some years. His family is devastated by his disappearance, and we pray for their protection at Sri Sri Krishna Balarama's lotus feet. If anyone is able to assist them, Premila is incapacitated with epilepsy, and Krsnendu aspires to complete his education, but they now have no source of maintenance since Purnacandra's disappearance.
