Dear APPA, For all the major milestones in my life from being selected for the Jaffna District cricket team to earning the USSR Scholarship to Russia at a young age, you always offered me wise words. You told me “This is not the end; this is just the beginning.” With those words, I began my journey. Before your passing, you tried to reach me to share more of your wisdom, but due to unforeseen circumstances, I was unable to speak with you. Today, I truly understand the value of your words, and the loss I feel is beyond expression. May your soul rest in eternal peace. Love, KUMAR (Son, U.K.)
