Obituary: Gordon Cooray RIP

GORDON COORAY NO MORE

It is with much sadness we notify the demise of our friend and old-Antonian, GORDON COORAY, who passed away peacefully yesterday. He was 88.

Gordon was an active member of the Old Antonian Social Club (Australia) from its inception in 1981. He had the distinction of serving in different roles during his time in the committee. He was the President for two years (1984 and 1996), Secretary in 1995 and Treasurer in 1999. In recognition of his services to the Club, Gordon received the Service Award in 2016. As the photos below suggest, he was a regular at our social gatherings until recently.

Although Gordon’s time at College was brief, having studied at St Sylvester’s for most of his school career, his love and passion for SACK was enormous.

INTRODUCTION As of 2010, there were 45,159 Sri Lankans living in the US. Substantial immigration began in the 1990s when many fled the violence of the Sri Lankan Civil War. The majority of Sri Lankan-Americans live in the vicinity of either New York City (where there’s a Little Sri Lanka on Staten Island), central New Jersey, or Los Angeles.
