Obituary, Dr. H.S.R. Wijemanne

Passed away in Kandy 12/10/2020 Another Batch mate says Good Bye- Dr H.S.R.Wijemanne Inbox

CHARITH NANAYAKKARA 1:40 PM (5 hours ago) to me, Mana, M.G.S, Keerthi/Sriyani(Dr) Hi Philip I noted the obituary notice you had added on to our 1960 medical entrants blog about the death of Wije. Sad news indeed but is recurring theme with our batch mates list getting shorter & shorter. As many of our batch mates are aware, Wije was a very popular, friendly and a very helpful medical colleague. Unlike few of us who are domiciled overseas, he served his motherland as a consultant for many years with dedication, kindness and understanding. In the last few years he became almost fully dependent for all his needs. As I understand, all his needs were provided exceptionally well by his his devoted wife and ably supported by his children. I met him and his family last, at our 2018 reunion held in Negombo. I had little contact with him otherwise but several of his batch mates like Karu, had close contact with him and his family. He was a very sincere and a helpful colleague and was always smiling, loud and intimate. He would be greatly missed by his surviving family, his relatives, his batch mates and the local community. Please convey our deepest sympathies and heart felt condolences to his surviving family. May he attain the eternal bliss of Nibhbhana . Nana C.S.Nanayakkara Charith Sena Nanayakkara
