Manfred (Petite Ferme)
This is to inform the community that Manfred from Petite Ferme passed away in the afternoon of June 22nd at his home.
Manfred was an active member of the Auroville Health Services for more than twenty years.
Auroville Health Services (AVHS) is a non-profit service in the area of public health and health care for seniors. It was set up by Dr Beena in 2001. When Dr Beena stepped back, Manfred took up her work with diligence.
Under Manfred's guidance the AVHS team was also concerned with providing psychological care for senior Aurovilians. Manfred was acutely aware of mental health problems that afflicted some seniors. With his effort a helpline was set up in Auroville.
Manfred and Dorothee collaborated on the building of Mahalakshmi Home for old and infirm Aurovilians who need help in their final years.
We salute a dedicated Aurovilian for his years of service to Auroville.
Manfred's mortal remains were buried on Wednesday, 24th June, at 4.30pm at the Auroville burial grounds.
