This is a tribute to a charming lady with a winsome smile, sweet and serene as her very name implies. The best go before their time to the land beyond. Those whom God loves die young, they say.
One such person was Mrs. Shanthi Wignarajah, the better half of one of our High Court judges. She was a multi-dimensional personality, dear to all, a rare being of virtue and culture: cherished companion, doting mother, teacher of teachers at the university who kept alive the English Language unit, guide and mentor, respected by the academic community, and ever hospitable, who gave ere charity began. Those near and dear to her enjoyed her sweet delicacies.
People like Mrs. Shanthi Wignarajah are the beloved of the angels. Let this one thought console her near and dear ones. She was to say in one word: “Non pareil” – beloved of the Lord.
Let us find solace and comfort in the thought that her soul is enjoying eternal bliss in Elysium, with her fond angels in everlasting glory. May she enjoy perpetual peace.
“Millions of roses watered by my tears bloom in her memory for ever”
Om Shanthi! Shanthi! Shanthi !
