Dear Uncle,
sorry to hear about your dear friend Captain, who showed up in a lot of your articles, if i am not mistaken hadn't he visited all of us at Paradise once?
it is truly sad to loose a close friend and one can never ever find someone to replace old friendship, hoping your memories with him once again warm your heart and and your tummy without the alcohol.
love to you and aunty.

I read with some sadness your farewell comments to your friend Cyril. I recall him figuring in the first of your essays I read, talking about you gentlemen returning to Rangoon to retrace childhood steps, so your comments today were very poignant.
A Very Happy Christmas to you, Lavina and all your family.

Chandroo..your article brought tears to my eyes knowing that our good mutual friend Capt. Cyril Dawson is no longer with us albeit in a better place and at peace with his Lord and Maker. Cyril always addressed me as "Me golden hearted lady" for some unknown reason and was set upon getting you to visit me in Thailand. Hopefully now you will acknowledge his wishes and do so and maybe we can both toast a drink to Cyril and reminisce our mutual friendship with him who always managed to bring a ray of sunshine into every heart he touched! Farewell dear Cyril and RIP wherever you may be but you will always remain dear to me!

Chandroo, I really admire your article on your friend Capt. Cyril Dawson. There are not too many people in this world who have such fond memories of their childhood and would take time to write "Shradhanjali" in their honour. Keep up my friend, the article was beautifully written and you have the time to write! God Bless Cyril Dawson! RIP

Hi Chandroo,
Thanks for your email sent to our private EM address.
Good to hear from you although it's always sad to hear of someone's passing especially if that person was a friend or someone known to us since childhood. We all are privileged to have known people since our School days in Burma and to keep in touch with them from time to time.
Hope you and your family are in good health as the same attends us in Australia. Do keep in touch and let us know the next time you're in Perth.
All our best wishes for Christmas and the New Year.

Hi Chandroo,
I'm very sorry to hear of your friend's final days and sickness.
My deepest sympathy for you and his family.
I will have a drink one day soon with you, in his behalf, Brand and Dry, sounds good.
All the best,

It's a very touching "Good Bye" article.
And then there were two! I always considered you, Cyril and myself as the three friends in Hong Kong even though there were other friends. I guess it is because the three of us were from Rangoon.
Take care.
Love,
