3.Dear Jerry & PhilipThank you for sharing the sad
news of another batch mate of ours who had died & also had his
final farewell service yesterday.
Fred was a very jovial, joined most of our batch reunions held in Sri Lanka and was a very loyal, friendly and reliable guy.
He will be sadly missed by his family, patients & families and our batch mates.
Please pass my deepest sympathies to his surviving family.
May he rest in Peace.

Sad to hear about Fred’s death. He was with me in Bloem. A happy-go-lucky guy, always full of life and a nice smile. He was the last guy off the dance floor at the reunions.
