It was sent byone of the daughters settled in Vancouver . The dead body was verytightly squeezed inside the coffin,with no space left in it! When theyopened the lid, they found a letter on top, which read as follows: "Dear brothers and sisters,I am sending ourmother's body to you since it was her last wish that: She should be buried only inthe cemetery of the All Saints Church in Borella - Colombo . And alsoshe told me to tell all of you that you should use A.F. Raymond forembalm works not Barney Raymond or Jayaratne. For Alms giving she said not to invite the entire townand the distant relatives. She said to order (only for our 4families)65 packets of Mutton Biriyani from Hotel Buhari at Maradana and openonly 12 bottles of Special Arrack for the guys and only one case ofThree Coins for the ladies. One more thing she was very particular about theHearse,which her coffin should carry from our home to Borella, should be2002 model Buick Automatic. She doesn't like manual gear old vehicles.DON"T FORGET THESE UNDERLINED REQUESTS ARE FROM HER LAST WISH. Sorry, I could not come along as all of my paid leaveare consumed and hopefully this time the God will look at us and blessedwith a boy. Ajith is working like a donkey for 20 hours a day for 3companies to save some money for the dowries ofgirls...................Anyway, let's go back to Ammi's funeralbusiness.
