Sithappa was a person who I called sithappa but as I was growing up, he was like another dad to me. He helped us financially and was great moral support. He would give us money every month when I was living in Sri Lanka. He was an honest, caring and very well educated person. He was a very family oriented person and loved to help others out whether it was raising money for charity or helping others when asked. Without people asking him to help, he would sense it and do what he does best. His family have come out to be amazing people just like the person he was. We will really miss him. He will always stay in our hearts.
