Hello Philip,

It was good of you to have attended Sankars wedding.He looks well.I remember his eldest being delivered at GH,Batti by Sinnathamby the Gen Surgeon as the VOG was off. The foetus was in distress and Sinna delivered the baby with one incision going through the abdominal wall as well as the uterus!. It probably holds the record for the fastest CS still. Mallika was transferred from Pottuvil where sankar was the Medical Officer in charge.I met him briefly at our reunion, but he left early and I could not have a good chat with him.If you happen to have his em address or tel no:

can I have them please.

Hello Sara,

Sankar has no email address. He is computer illiterate. His Telephone No is 0332224301. He is working as Director in a private nursing home at Chilaw and comes home only on week ends. Mallika is always at home in Bandarawaththe, Gampaha.

Many will remember him for his good humoured pranks, particularly in the Block. My late wife Bella had been at the receiving end on many occasions.

I recall (though I don’t know how, through all that arrack) Siri and I had great fun doing a double-act at the Law Medical for three years

Individuals will carry different, but happy memories.

Siri was a single-handed GP in Gisborne, New Zealand and retired only an year or so ago. He was a dedicated family man

Obituary - Dr.G.Gunathilake

Hi Philip

It is likely that some of our batch mates may already have heard the sad news of the death of one of our batch mates- Dr G. Gunatillaka who passed away peacefully at home in Wadduwa, Sri Lanka.

Some of you may remember him and would have kept in touch with him as he was a popular GP practising in Wadduwa.

He was quiet but a sincere friend.

He was a 'Jewakite'- hosteller at Jeewaka Buddhist Medical Students hostel.

In December 2011, a group photograph was taken with him and few of his hotel mates at a wedding in Colombo.
I got these details( his obituary and a copy of the group photo) from a friend of mine.
Please share these details with our batch mates.

May he attain the eternal bliss of NIbbhana.

Regards

Nana
