In Memoriam

BOC pensioners among whom there were many who  patronized the "OLD CRONIES" and never failed to attend the fellowships hosted by some veterans, left us during the past few months. With the onset of the Covid 19 pandemic and the strict health guide lines imposed many of us were prevented from attending their funerals and taking part in their last rites at the grave yards or at the Crematoriums.

The month of November being specially dedicated to those who left us either due to Old Age or Sickness,it is our duty to recall to memory those loved ones who once walked abreast with us, sharing our joys and sorrows. As a remembrance we publish the photos from available records of those who died. Please pray for the repose of their souls or offer your merits for them.

                        We deeply regret to record the demise 

                         of  Veteran Banker, Trade Unionist 

                                        and Sportsman

                                                      Asoka Perera 

                                                                  on the 03rd September 2020.

He was one of our past Presidents  who earned accolades from all the Pensioners for the welfare measures he was able to provide for them.

The Photos appearing below taken at the many fellowships hosted by the BOC Old Cronies speaks a volume about his inimitable character in associating with those who were near and dear to him.

                                            May he attain the bliss of Nibbana
