Greetings from Ravin

I am sorry I could not make it. I could just imagine the fun, you all would have had, mainly the meeting and remembering the good old days of growing up at S.T. C.

Please convey my regards to Shiran. We played Hockey together.If Iam correct he had had 2 older brother's,  who too played Hockey for College. They are related to the the Wijayasooriya brothers, who all did sports from Barnes Ave.Mt. Lavinia. I spoke to Rukmal W. in Sydney, Australia, when I was on holiday.

Suresh B. , I met his Parents when they were in Toronto.Canada.

I spoke to Hensman a couple of months ago. I also was able to speak to Ravi Kuruppu and William Hendricus.

All those names bring back memories.

Thanks for sending copies of the E-mail's.

Regards, 

Ravin

Greetings from PN (Niral) Fernando

Many happy Returns!!!

You who have been a part of my earliest days enriched my life in many different ways and still through recollection and association the pleasure continues…

 I am sorry I could not make it to join in the celebrations but will be with you in spirit!

So from the earliest of days from Form I b – day 1 – back bench –flanked by Weerasooriya (Mahasiri)  and Amarasinghe (Lakshan) with 'Bamboo David;s introduction to 'The man and his Cheeses' to the final days in Coll Forms filled with many episodes too numerous to mention - it was a priviledge-

Therefore my friends,

 

 May your stories be many,

                       Your feelings run deep

 Those were our days

                       They're still ours to keep

No matter where we be

                       We remember with pleasure

Old mates, Old times

                       …and that old school by the sea
