*With Gratitude and Heavy Hearts — The Journey of 40 Years Comes to a Close*
After four blessed decades of service, the St. Jude Bus Service of the Kattakkayam family has officially come to an end.🥹
What began 40 years ago as a humble initiative grew into a journey filled with memories, relationships, and unwavering support from our beloved community. Our buses were not just vehicles on the road — they carried school children with dreams, workers with responsibilities, families with hopes, and countless stories every single day.
Today, we have handed over our two buses to Shalom Bus Service, marking the closing of this beautiful chapter in our lives.
* We bow our heads in gratitude to God Almighty, whose grace and protection guided every mile of our journey. Without His blessings, this long and meaningful service would not have been possible.😇
* To our dedicated employees — drivers, conductors, mechanics, and staff — you were the backbone of St. Jude Bus Service. Your hard work, loyalty, and sincerity built the trust we earned over the years. We are forever grateful.🫂❤️
* To the people of our native place and all our dear passengers who travelled with us and supported us through generations — thank you for making us part of your daily lives. Your encouragement, kindness, and faith in us gave us strength and purpose.🙏❤️
Though our buses may no longer run under our name, the memories, friendships, and goodwill will always remain in our hearts.
With sincere thanks and prayers for everyone’s continued success and safety. 🙏
