Forest Park/US, 27 May 2018: Usually naming a street sign is posthumous. Here, a Mangalurean activist and humanitarian received a street sign honor as, Honorary Dr Austin Prabhu Way, here, on Saturday, May 26. This is the first time it happened to an Indian born leader in the United States of America.

 

 

It was a memorable day in Forest Park for the Mayor, Village Council and Citizens of Forest Park. Mayor Antony Calderone read the proclamation naming the part of Dunlop Avenue in Forest Park to a dedicated humanitarian Dr Austin Prabhu. It was live telecasted on TV Asia by Vandana Jhingal. Mayor appreciated Dr Austin’s challenging work and humanitarian spirit and explained the gathering why he deserves this street sign to remember Dr Austin forever.

 

Dr Austin thanked his family and those who helped him to reach his successes in life. He said, ‘Let us make our religion ‘Love and Share.’ When we love our neighbors and our community and share their needs whatever way we can, spirit of giving uplifts humanity. If all of us in this world do the same, this world will become a better place to live for tomorrow.’

 

Some of Dr Austin’s family members and friends joined in this celebration and congratulated him for this great achievement.
