The Nagendrans Remember...

         "I last met her (Thilagi Akka) in 2005, at Puni Akka's place when she
         visited  UK. Thilagi  Akka  and  your  dear  Dad  were  very  helpful  to
         Appa & Amma when we first moved to Colombo after many years
         out in the sticks and they helped us to settle in to Colombo life".


         "I  was  very  fond  of  your  Mother  (Thilagi  Akka)  and  knew  that
         Amma  and  she  became  good  friends  over  the  years  and
         corresponded.  May  she  rest  in  peace  after  a  long  and  productive
         life."

         "Deepest sympathies and condolences to you and your siblings.  We
         all feel the family bond and cherish memories of our long and happy
         association."

         "Yes, we all loved Thilagi Akka dearly and have cherished memories
         of our wonderful times together; rather like an extended family.

         We are thankful that we had an opportunity to meet and have such a

         stimulating  conversation  with  your  Amma  in  such  a  peaceful
         environment. She seemed to be happy there at the home.

         Always hard to bear, but a solace that she was looked after so well to
         the end; and had a happy and fulfilled life."

         "As  a  family  we  treasure  the  memories  of  our  wonderful  times
         together;  from  house  visits  to  family  outings  and  memorable  day
         trips. I also remember going to Sunday classes with your family and

         returning  to  your  place  for  Thilagi  Akka’s  gorgeous  luncheon
         spread.

         The wonderful day in Moragala was very special.

         My  close  friendship  with  Dhamy  and  her  ties  with  your  family
         opened up another dimension between friends and family.
