emails from Tissa and Nana
Hi!
I am delighted that this has come to fruition. I would not be able to attend this initial meeting. Please appreciate that my offer of computers is still open - based on the provision of a high speed internet connection being available in the library.
Nana: I also want to thank you for your kind words of encouragement while I was ill. I returned home about a week back and slowly catching up on things.
All the best,
Tissa

Dear Tissa
1. I am so glad that you have come home and recovering steadily. Please keep smiling and take things easy and as it comes(easier said than done) Will chat to you soon when you are free and comfortable.
2. You must be avery delighted that our initiative has finally bearing fruit for the good of many.
It would have been really nice if we are able to participate at the inaugural meeting.
I also may not be able to attend the meeting due to preplanned committment but I am still trying.
I am hopeful some of our batch mates in and around Colombo would be able to attend.
Philip- I hope you are able to attend .
Regards
Nana

Alumni Association, Faculty of Medicine, Colombo
Dear Philip
Please share this 'exciting hot news' with our batch mates.
Some of you may remember we made a 'presentation of Essential Library Books, 9 computors,essential teaching material for use in the Physiology Department etc to the Colombo Medical Faculty to commemorate our Reunion.
At this presentation, we made proposal to the Dean ( Prof. Harsha Senevirathna) & the Senior Academic Staff for the establishment of a Colombo Medical Faculty Alumni Association and a Alumni Trust Fund.
Prof. Senevirathna responded by delegating the huge task to a sub committee. We have continued to liaise with the Dean & the subcommittee since last July. Within a year we are so delighted to note that the long overdue Alumni Association is becoming a reality.
We are very proud to share the latest exciting hot news that there is a dazzling light at the end of the tunnel and all our dreams are coming true.
If you do not believe me,Here is the official proclamation sent out by the Organisers
My special thanks to the Dean & the Sub committee members and all those who supported us in various ways with all the useful suggestions and encouragement.
Best wishes

Hello Philip,
Our daughter Manel has created a website for friends to leave messages which we take in turns to read to him. I wonder if you could distribute it to your batch and they could leave messages if they wish. I hope I have the correct address. http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/kappagoda
Thank you,
Mary K
