Sad news indeed. I had an opportunity of chatting with Chndralatha at our last reunion in 2018. She had a few complaints about her health. Despite her ill health at that time she attended the reunion.
Piching and I would like to convey our deepest condolences to Chnadralatha’s family.
May she attain the Supreme Bliss of Nirvana.

Sad news indeed … What a great thing we have the Web Page to inform the Class of 64– Thanks a lot Sam .
Sam- I sent you some pics taken at the three RUs – 2014, 2018, 2019 — with Chandralatha , and a Tribute To Chandralatha , for you to post on the web .
I just spoke with Rajes — she talked with Chandralatha a month ago – and there were no major health issues other than some mobility issues . Rajes had one of her relatives visit Chandralatha too a year ago . Rajes and Chandralatha were very close friends, a lovely bond of friendship , from their time together as room mates, in UK back in 1979 .
There were no major health issues, from what I recall from the last time I saw her at Beruwala – 2019 — other than some aches, pains in the joints , which is nothing new at this stage in our lives .
Well– this is Life …
Stay Safe and Be Well — Deepthie .

Sad News. I had some conversations with Chandralatha, while in Med School. She was a Wonderful, quiet lady, well spoken & courteous. Down to earth Human Being. Never continues contacts after I moved to United States. Those precious memories of a well balanced, decent Woman, are in my memories.
Chandralatha, May you rest in peace. Acknowledging sympathies to her Family & Loved ones

Sad indeed to hear of Chandralathas passing.
I had the pleasure of catching up with her over brunch at the last RU at Beruwala in 2019. She filled me in on the ‘Locals’, the ‘Patriotic Souls’ among us who opted to stay back and serve the Motherland rather than seek ‘greener pastures’ overseas.
Chandralatha had some cardiac issues and had undergone a coronary intervention (angioplasty and stenting) not long before.
My condolences to the family.
