Mettha who retired from active practice passed away this pm  after a brief illness. Daya Jayasinghe May she attain Nibbana.

Hello Philip,

This is to give you some sad news. Meththa Kurukulasooriya (Muniratna) from our batch passed away two days ago in Melbourne.

She had pulmonary fibrosis and required oxygen. I am not sure what the terminal event was.

Please pass this on to the rest of the batch.

Thanks,

Buddy

Very sad indeed.

Meththa had been such a lovely batch mate who was very friendly and sociable.

She will be missed by her family and friends.

Please convey our deepest sympathies to her surviving family.
