Obituary: Mrs Mihindukulasuriya Beatrice Perera (Nee Fernando) (24 May 1924 – 3 Oct 2021) As explained by her son Claude Perera….I lost my beloved mother yesterday at the age of 97 years.

OBITUARY IINEZ SOURJAH (6-10-1929- 8-9-2021) by Hugh Karunanayake It is with much sadness that I refer to the death of a dear friend, CSA member Inez Sourjah who  passed away in her sleep in the afternoon of 8 Septmber 2021.

Rohan and his wife Deanne  hosted the third such dinner.Those get- togethers were to herald the formation of what is now known ...
