I was one year senior to my dear Thiru at the Agriculture Faculty at Peradeniya as a student. When he joined MI staff I was lecturing in Entomology at the faculty in Peradeniya. After I got settled down in Sydney, Australia, I vaguely remember him was involved in radio broadcasting in Sydney like me, in Canada or wherever he was living. During his student days he used to corm his hair in a spiral manner to cover his boldness and at the dining hall in our Hall of Residence I used to disturb his hair to expose his boldness. I do this because, he gets annoyed and angry when someone does this to him. He was a quiet and very friendly guy then and we all enjoyed living together in the same Hall of Residence with him, particularly after meals standing in front of the Hall under the shade trees in our Sarongs, watching the Girls walking to their lectures. Whenever I hark back on these memories Thiru always come into my mind. We will all miss him now for ever!!!! May his soul rest in peace!!!!
