Dear Railway Sergeant Ariyam, It’s hard to believe that a full year has passed since you left us. Thought time moves forward, your memory remains deeply rooted in our hearts and in the very tracks we walk each day. You were more than a colleague-you were a brother, a friend, and a guiding light within Srilanka Railways. Your dedication to duty, your cheerful spirit, and your quiet strength made a lasting impact on all of us. Whether it was the early morning shifts, the long journeys, or the shared laughter during tea breaks, your presence brought warmth and unity to our team. As we gather in remembrance, we honor not just your service, but your humanity. The echo of your footsteps still lingers in the stations you loved, and your legacy rides with every train that passes through. You may be gone from our sight, but never from our hearts. We miss you dearly, and we carry forward your memory with pride and gratitude. May your soul continue to rest in peace, and may your journey beyond be as a noble as the one you lived in us.
