Dear Babu, I am sad that you have left our world and reached Lord Shiva’s foot. It was like yesterday that we grew up together. I have a lot of good memories. You are very kind and always cared for your family, I wanted to share a few fond memories of our time together. We grew up with our grandparents, I was 7 and you were 5 years old. One morning you came and told me that chickens can swim. I was puzzled because we do not have any river or ponds near our home but replied to him, “Of course birds can swim”. Still curious, I asked him "How did you know?" He replied, “Come, I will show you”. He took me to our Neighbour’s property and there was a well 15 feet deep. I could see there were three chickens swimming. Not only did Babu throw the chickens in the well but also pots and pans! We ran back to our home and later I heard the chickens were rescued by the houseowner. Three years ago, he came to Australia to see my mum, we had a great time with all our siblings, and we had a lot of fun together. Babu was a strong, good-looking person. The illness made him very weak and at times, he needed to carry an oxygen cylinder. He cares and loves his family so much, he wanted to take Sri Lankan finger foods to London, and he ordered more than £1000 worth of snacks. He also asked me to drive him to Melbourne to join his wife. It was a collective effort from my wife, sisters and I to load all the food items into the car which took us more than half an hour. When I started to drive the car seatbelt sign came up along with a beeping sound. I had to put both seatbelts around the food box to stop the beeping sound. I drove 11 hours and had an enjoyable time as we talked a lot about our memories. Finally, it is time for me say goodbye to you and I am happy your suffering is over. May you rest in peace at Lord Shiva’s foot.
