Honoring Pandu & Supporting Sayuri's Future

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the unexpected passing of Panduka "Pandu" Jayasuriya, a beloved husband, father, and friend. Pandu was a man who exuded warmth, kindness, and patience, leaving an indelible mark on everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. His infectious smile could light up a room, and his caring nature made even the hardest days easier. He was truly one of a kind, and his loss is felt deeply by all who knew him.

As we grieve together, we also reflect on the legacy he leaves behind -not just through his memories, but through his family. Dumindra and Sayuri, have been left to navigate this overwhelming loss with heavy hearts, compounded by the sudden financial burdens they now face.

In this difficult time, we are reaching out to ask for your support. The family is in need of financial assistance to cover the costs of funeral expenses, the ongoing challenges brought about by the loss of Pandu's income, Dumindra's time off from work, and most importantly, to ensure that Sayuri's educational journey can continue unhindered. Pandu was deeply committed to Sayuri's education and her future. We are reaching out to their community to help secure a brighter path for Sayuri in Pandu's memory.

In Lieu of Flowers:
We kindly ask that, in place of sending flowers, you consider making a donation to their GoFundMe that has been set up for the family. Your contribution will not only assist with immediate expenses, but will also help provide stability as Sayuri continues her education and works toward fulfilling the dreams Pandu held for her.

We understand that this is a challenging time for many, any contribution, no matter the size, will be deeply appreciated and make a significant difference. Every dollar donated will go directly to helping the family, ensuring they can focus on healing and moving forward with the necessary support.

We are incredibly grateful for any support you can offer, whether it's a financial contribution or simply sharing this message with others who may want to help. Your kindness, love and support are truly appreciated by Dumindra and Sayuri during this difficult time. Thank you for honoring Pandu's memory in this way and for helping ensure that his legacy lives on through the future of his daughter, Sayuri.
