Uncle Roland
You were a gem of a man very rare in mankind. I looked up to you like as a father figure and you always had time for a chat. One does not need to look at a dictionary to see the meaning of the word "Gentleman." You Roland Wanigatunga truly represent that word. Anoma, Anushka, Niroshika and I are truly blessed to have crossed your path in this lifetime.
I treasure many memories of the golf we enjoyed playing together. I still remember when we played in Colombo a few years back and you hit the ball into the pond. The pond boy got in and found it for you. You asked him to get back out so that you could play your next shot and he said "No I will wait in the water as you will hit it again into the pond." We all laughed and you turned around and told me "Cheeky Fellow" and gave him 50 rupees. I have many fond memories of those times.
Uncle you are safe in God's hands and we will treasure the memories for ever.
Good bye Sweet Prince until we meet again
Ranjan
