The Tembusu (Fagraea fragrans) is a large evergreen tree in the family Gentianaceae. It is native to Southeast Asia. Its trunk is dark brown, with deeply fissured bark, looking somewhat like a bittergourd. It grows in an irregular shape from 10 to 25m high. Its leaves are light green and oval in shape. Its yellowish flowers have a distinct fragrance and the fruits of the tree are bitter tasting red berries, which are eaten by birds and fruit bats. Source: Tembusu, Wikipedia

Kevin’s deep, abiding concern for the welfare of this society resulted in his book Gracious Living, classified as inspirational with humour. It is written around the three senses of or communication, such as seeing, hearing and smelling, with over 70 incidents played out every day by many of us, knowingly or unknowingly, and accompanied with illustrations to make reading it fun.
