email from Sunil Liyanage

Dear friends,

I write to convey thanks from our sons Niran and Yohan, Bella’s brother Indran, and from myself to all friends who got in touch with us, whether by email, phone call, card or with flowers. We were touched by your comments and by your expression of sympathy. There were over 300 people in Church; and we reckon half of them came home afterwards.

The eulogies were given by friend and colleague Philip Reginald who spoke about Bella’s work, and by our older son Niran who spoke about Bella from a personal and family perspective.

These are attached to this email.

If you have difficulty in opening the attachments, and would still wish to read them, please get in touch we me directly, sunilpl@btconnect.com and I will send an open Word document.

With our thanks and love

Sunil

The toy dentures

My elder Grand-son had a toy windup set of plastic teeth, bought while in the UK. He had lost it. He wanted a replacement. We searched high and low in the toy shops in Sri Lanka to no avail. My wife had a coronary by-pass. When she was recovering, my grand-son who knew that she was wearing dentures, told her that if she passed away, that he wanted her dentures. Eventually came Christmas and he wrote a letter to Santa Claus where he mentioned the dentures. Ultimately his 'Baappa' and 'Punchi' got this for him for Christmas. You can see him proudly holding the dentures in his hands last Christmas day.

Greetings to the Batch of 1960

email from Dr.Sunil Liyanage

Dear Philip,

You kindly informed colleagues about the passing away of my dear wife Bella on 27^th December. Some have kindly phoned or sent emails already.

May I use your circulation list to inform people of the funeral arrangements on Thursday 6^th January at 11.30 a.m. at Christ Church, Christchurch Road, Virginia Water, GU25 4PT, UK

My apologies to those living outside UK for the intrusion with this notice, when they would clearly not be able to attend.

The family would love to see as many friends and colleagues as possible at the funeral, and they are invited to our home afterwards for some food and drink.

Kind regards

Sunil
