To The Blessed Soul who was promoted to glory 
Dear Aunty Rose,
Good and faithful servant, come and share the joy - Jesus has welcomed you home. Your life journey was filled with excitements', joy, caring, concern for others and have been a blessed one and seeing such a blessed life we give God the glory for his creation. 99 years according to the Roman Calendar but 100 years according to Hebrew calendar which our dear Brother Jerome affectionately mentioned on your 99th birthday celebration in May this year   of Gods mighty  grace and blessings to complete  2 jubilee seasons in this life is worthy of never ending praise to our everlasting Lord, who loves his children unconditionally. We as your Nephews and Nieces had many good years of relationship with you and your family, we have experienced your wonderful hospitality, the loving care you so generously gave.  Your wishes ,presents and presence for our Birthdays , thoughtful gifts during Christmas for many years, visiting us at school, being at the school sports meet and  your constant encouragement and concern of our wellbeing  during our school days and also when we were older, shows how much you loved us. We are indeed blessed to have you in our life, we have good memories, and we will cherish them and remember them in years to come. Our life is like a Journey in a train – (I am reminded of the trips, I as a small boy took with you on ‘Udarata Manike ‘to Hatton to visit Aunty Thangam . The  Destination of the train was Badulla , it was we who got off the train when our station came ), you have in this life journey got off at your destined station, my dear Aunty as God came to meet you and take you home. Our station would come someday where we will have to get off, until then we remain in the train enjoying the journey with good memories' of the time passed by. Cousin Olga and Eugene take to heart that she has gone to be with the Lord. No more pain, no more anxiousness. 


We share the sadness in the loss of our dear Aunty Rose. She was so dear to us. Always with the smile and having looked after us as if her own children with love and care. Well balanced lady, committed to her husband, devoted to her children, affectionate to her siblings, delightful to her admirable grandchildren and grate grandchildren. Stood up wherever it was necessary and humble enough to make peace. Having run the race well she deserves a royal salute.  Indeed she has done what she had been called for His Glory and let her life testimony pass down to generations to come.  May the good Lord strengthen us, grant us the grace to go through this period of sadness and experience His peace within us. As we believe until we meet again “May she rest in peace”.  Jeyam and family.
