ADRIAN SERPANCHY – YOUR LEGACY WILL LIVE ON – By Lawrence Machado IT’s always emotional to say goodbye to a friend you have known since kindergarten, specially when his death comes so unexpectedly. When I heard that Adrian Serpanchy had passed away in a Melbourne hospital on the morning of Tuesday (November 22,2023), I was stunned. When I found the courage to call his devoted wife of more than 40 years, Lorraine, later that day, words were hard to come by. I can only imagine what Lorraine, her children Delon and Joanne, and his siblings Russell, Jerome, Randy, Loxley and Yolande are going through.

“THE COLLEGE HALL” – by Des Kelly   Once again, brings back many precious memories of my Alma Mater, even though I was not in College for many years, leaving, to run away from it, (& home)when just fifteen and a half years old, to join an English Circus Troup who were set to tour the Island, under contract to Donavan Andree.

Noel Cruz and Pappa De Niese, I sang in the College Choir, also did various ‘solo’ concerts, entertaining hundreds of people who loved the Venue, for it’s comfort, compared to many other halls around. My thanks go out to both Keith Bennett and Algi Wijewickrema for helping us at e’Lanka to ‘show-off’ our College Hall at St.Peter’s College, Bambalapitiya. Desmond Kelly.(Mr.Music).

“OUR ALMA MATER” – BY Des Kelly          As we quickly approach yet another Mothers’ day, here in Australia, my thoughts naturally fly to my own Mother, who, with my Dad, is resting in peace perfect peace, in the most beautiful “Botanical Necropolis” in Melbourne.  As everyone should know, a “Mother” is, by far, the most important person in this World of ours. “Mater” is the Latin word for her, so where does the term “Alma Mater” fit in ?. Generally, folks, it is indeed a Mother who accompanies her children to School for the first time (as it was in my case), the term “Alma Mater” therefore is considered to be your first School or College, your “Nourishing Mother” is yet another endearing term (in Latin), simply because your place of learning takes over from your biological Nourishing Mother, to hopefully teach you the facts of ...
