With the deepest sorrow and aching heart, my heart felt condolences to Rohini, his sons and to his sisters and brothers whom i used to consider as mine too. Having known as a very good friend for the last some forty years, the situation in the country allowed us together for few years intermittently in Sri Lanka and a few weeks in France again. Finally, i have been planning to go and stay with him in Colombo since last many months, but then came the pandemic that postponed everything. Now, i guess, God has been much quicker to call him to live in eternity forever and we all missed him to the surprise of almost everyone of us. May his soul rest in eternal peace forever Dearest friend - Mano, Toronto, Canada
