My dear Indira !
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU TODAY0 26TH JUNE . !
I hope you have a great day today, and many more Happy Birthday Days in the
years ahead .
It has been such a wonderful thing in my life , here in Canada, knowing
you, Ana, the girls, and your mom since you first came here, in the 80’s .
I do recall very clearly- Ana visiting me and Rajes at the Toronto Hospital
back in ’85 or so, – with his dad or uncle, and I think, as you were still
in UK at that time.
I think, your mom and Ana and the girls came first and you arrived later .
Then, you and Ana took off to Newfoundland- for work- as there was such a
demand over there for an Ophthalmogist and a Dermatologist , and you both
stayed on there, very faithfully, for the next 30 yrs !
Rajes and my self, had such fun with your mom and daughters , in Toronto
and at my cottage on summer weekends .
I recall a day, when Selvarani was in Toronto, and some of the A gp guys,
and you were also in Toronto- as you and Ana were celebrating the birth of
your first grandchild, ( october- 2001, I think it was ) and it was fun
seeing the three generations together, with Selva and the A gp folks ,
Rajes and my self !
Then- the 4000 km drive on the Trans Canada, till it ended at Signal
Hill, that me and my husband did to Newfoundland and back in 2004- what a
road trip it was , to see all of you and Ana, and your mom who was not
quite well at that time .
It was great getting together in 2014, Beruwala, and again in Newfoundland
on my way to Arctic Quebec/ Newfoundland- Labrador in 2015 .
By the way- I left out the fun we had at your old home in Rosmead Place
back then, as it would fill up another page !
We sure knew how to have fun !!
So my dear, Have a Very Happy Birthday to day, with family and who ever
that is around !
Your old pal- Deepthie

Dear Indragee, Thank you for your good wishes. I can remember coming to see you at your station near Nawalapitiya with Dharmasena and Nissanka (a Peradeniya graduate), It was across the Ginigathena pass if I remember right, and quite dark when we got back. But we were young and fearless and never gave it a thought. Good old days!

You are quite right Ariya, when you mention tasty snacks- Rajes and my self had our fill of them, when Indira’s mom was living in Toronto, and also, Ana would bring snacks for us made by Noeline Aunty , to the evening class at U of Toronto- when we used to attend ‘revision classes ‘ for the LMCC exam, during that long hot summer of 1986 !!
Those were the days !!
Happy Birthday to you Indira today – 29th June , – -as I see I have made a mistake in the date as 26th — oh well- a senior moment I presume !
