A teacher who made our lives sublime

W. D. Fernando

I was deeply touched by the appreciation sent in by ‘Ranee’ in memory of our beloved teacher, W. D. Fernando (Sunday Times, April 11).

The entire school, and our class in particular, loved WD for his warm, affable and understanding nature, and mostly because he was so different. It is hard to find teachers or people of his calibre.
… “they make our lives sublime,

and departing leave behind us, footprints on the sands of Time.”
