Bhai Parminder Singh Ji (27) founded the Gurmat Studies Foundation and the Guru Nanak Academy, a non-profit Gurmat school in Surrey. He was an inspirational English kathavachak, multifaith speaker, community activist, leader, and did Punj Pyare seva in amrit sanchars, organized various Sikh youth camps, and did selfless service for the wellbeing of humanity as a way of life. He was a blessed soul — a true warrior-saint with a passion for Sikhi and a deep love for the Guru, which he taught and practiced with devotion.
Bhai Charnjit Singh Ji (24) was the head ustaad (instructor) of the Shaheed Baba Deep Singh Ji Gatka Akhara, an international gatka training ring with branches in Punjab, Ontario, and BC. He was an accomplished kathavachak and Sikh historian with a world-class mastery of the Sikh martial arts. He had amazing knowledge and discipline in the art of weapons and the ideology and history of their use in the Sikh community, as well as sincere love and humility that made him the friend and inspiration of young and old alike.
Bibi Rena Kaur Ji (17) was a dedicated student in the Shaheed Baba Deep Singh Gatka Akhara, a volunteer teacher at the Guru Nanak Academy, and the inspiration behind Kaurs United, a non-profit Sikh womens organization. She was a uniquely talented keertaniya with a heavenly voice and an intense love for the company of holy souls. She strongly embraced the Sikh martial arts with dedication and devotion, and inspired many young women to become stronger Gursikhs by being an outstanding role model.
