Your beautiful spell on earth will always be remembered

Viola Eunice Perera

These words are in memory of Viola Eunice Perera, who left us to be in a place of rest safe in the presence of the Lord. She was a loving, caring person who touched the hearts of all those who came in to contact with her.

She was dedicated to her chosen profession as a teacher. She will however be mostly remembered for her personal qualities. She was an outgoing person with a sunny cheerful nature. She was family-oriented and it was an intimate circle with her husband, six children, their spouses and grandchildren, and one or two closely connected relatives. She was deeply concerned about the welfare of each one of them, while respecting their individual wishes. She was always there for them, pitching in to help during times of crises and sharing the good times. She was not only my sister but also my best friend. We shall all join as one large family to pay tribute to a wonderful person.

Viola, it was sad, but we had to let you go where God wanted you, over there in a happy forever clime. He knows best and we had to bow to His will. Still even death cannot erase our happy memories. We thank God for your beautiful spell here on earth with us.
