We are deeply saddened by the sudden demise of Ratnavadivel. My sisters, Jayanthi, Damayanthi and I vividly remember when Ratnavadivel lived with us in Borella, Colombo when he entered Colombo University. Our late father, Balasingham Dharmalingam always held Ratnavadivel as an example of exemplary qualities, determination, focus to succeed in all aspects of life which he did brilliantly but always had the best of human qualities, which we salute! He kept in touch with us and was very fond of our late father and mother. We pray to God to accept his soul and watch over his beloved wife and children and for a full recovery of his wife.
