Memories of Derryck

Dear Philip

We want to share the very sad news of the death of another wonderful Batchmate - Derryck who passed away peacefully in the presence of his close family.

This must be shocking news to his close family, his close friends and many of his patients.

Derryck was one of the popular batchmates who was always smiling, loud, full of energy and was always loyal, sociable and ever helpful.

He was my body partner and had remained intimate and friendly with me and many other batch mates over the years.

Few of us kept in touch with him and his family and his beloved wife Renata till his final demise.

He will be sadly missed by his family and all his friends.

We can only share our sincere thoughts with his close family at tHis time of their grief and great loss.

We offer our deepest sympathies to Rohitha, Nilmini, Renata and his surviving family.

May he rest in peace.

This is the obituary appeared in the Daily News this morning.( see below).

With sadness

Nana. & N.T. De Silva.

Dear All

We were saddened to hear the passing away of our dear friend Derrick, but we do agree that may be it’s a blessing in disguise.

He leaves behind fond memories of so much fun, especially singing and partying after rugby matches.

May he rest in peace
