"ELT" was a very active batch mate. He married Dr. Merle nee Vincent of the same batch. He got the second Astra-Zenica vaccine at the LRH on Saturday where I met him and took the photos below. He got unsteady on his feet on Sunday and was rushed to NHSL and was dead on admission. Throat swab post mortem was negative and they ruled out Covid infection.
He built a Nursing Home in Avissawella and did GP practice for more than 40 years. He was a well known and popular figure in Avissawella.
