To our dear Baby Periyappa, We cannot describe the pain and shock to know our funniest, mischievous, kindest and fun-loving uncle is no more. We always looked forward to coming to Sri Lanka so that we could spend time with you. You treated us as your own, always made sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. We will forever remember your your loud laugh, colourful shirts and your young man dance moves. Your big personality, your heart of gold and the twinkle in your eyes when you thought of doing something cheeky. The way you and dad would act like little kids when you were together. We wish we did this more often. We thought we had more time. You taught us to never take life too seriously and to do what we can to help others with no expectations. What a powerful thing to teach us. You were one in a million and the void in our family will never be filled. Rest in peace Periyappa, we will definitely miss you. Keep on creating mischief wherever you are. We are so fortunate to call you our uncle.
