Dear friends,
Our close friend Dr. Rajasingham Theivendran (batch of
1962), passed away peacefully due to a heart ailment. He had just completed his
77th birthday.
He lived happy in Jaffna with wife Sengkamalam-
anaesthetist (1964 batch) and his 2 daughters, and grand children, son living
in Australia.
He was much respected by all in
Jaffna where he settled in early.
From St. Joseph’s Colombo days 1954- he studied earlier at Mahajana College
Jaffna, he was a very close friend moving in our ‘clique’.
Dr. Sivanandasigham and I were with him way back in 1955 at
‘ Ramagiri’ Tellippallai moving loafing on cycles and bus.
And Theiva and Siva were at my house in Akuressa about the
same time.
In Jaffna Theiva and ‘Sengki’ were cornerstones of
the Jaipur Foot Centre from its inception in 1987. Right through troubled
times.
Both were held in great esteem by all.
Island of Muttur was another distant place he gladly served.
A doctor of
excellence, he chose preventive medicine to serve his people.
After retirement he was even busier running the private
Central Hospitals there.
As his illness progressed, he opted
to see patients friends relations and all free.
A doctor, a man of excellence and integrity.
A great friend.
May his soul rest in peace.
Susiri and Keerthi
We all miss him.
I miss him most as one of his best friends.
