Late Kugathasan was a classmate of mine at Hartley College and a batchmate of mine at the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Peradeniya. He was a man of few words, always cool, calm and collected. I met him and his family 4 years ago in Jaffna when we were on a holiday. I just can't believe that Kugathasan is a history, now. Please accept my Heartfelt condolences. May my condolences bring you comfort and may my prayers ease the pain of this loss.” “We pray the love for the lost is forever carried in your memory.” “Words can't express how saddened we are to hear of your loss.” “May the memory of Kugathasan bring you comfort and peace.
