My dear cousin Blaise was a pioneer in many ways from attending Law College in Ceylon, to migrating to Canada, assisting his dear wife Pearl with her Montessori School, encouraging Lisa and Leanne at every turn. After obtaining his PhD Blaise turned to teaching and was admired by both students and colleagues. Blaise often visited his six cousins in Toronto including attending my wedding. May his memories be a blessing. Viresh - Posted by: Viresh Fernando (Cousin) on: Jun 20, 2022

My condolences to your family. I met Blaise as he was a member at the Rady JCC where I work. Blaise would come to the desk and we would talk about gardening. I will miss his smile and laughter. - Posted by: Marion Linnemann (Friend) on: Jun 20, 2022
