It is with profound sadness that we send our heartfelt condolences on the passing of our beloved friend Dayanandan, fondly known as Daya. We have known Daya and his dear wife Sutha for over forty years, and during that time we shared many wonderful moments together. My wife Suri and myself are glad that we were able to spend the last moments with him Daya was a compassionate and kind-hearted person, always ready to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. He was only a phone call away whenever I needed him. One thing I will always remember about Daya is his signature laugh—something truly unique. He would tell a joke, and most of the time those listening would laugh not so much at the joke itself, but at his infectious laugh. My wife Suri, our sons Jonathan and Timothy, and I will always treasure the many fond memories we shared with him. May his soul rest in eternal peace.
