The parents of Ishan, Pathma and Gnanapala Samaranayake, were two of the three newcomers welcomed to Sri Lankan Seniors Manitoba (SLSM) at a recent event. I told Ishan, it was fitting that they promoted the idea to form a Sri Lankan seniors’ organization when he as well as Nuwan Perera were board members of Sri Lankan Association of Manitoba (2016/2017), because their parents are now enjoying the benefits of their long-term thoughts.
The Loving father of Sajeewa, named as Nandapala Welendagoda, made up the third member of the three newcomers who joined with us at the June 16th, 2023, get together at The Leaf, Assiniboine Park. Walking and fellowship were the main proceedings for the day and followed by a light meal.
