Tiffany Gunaratne of Randall Manor passed away on July 22, 2006.
Cherished daughter of Ajantha and Surangani (Sue). Loving sister of Sandra, Christopher and Alysia.
Tiffany was the third of four children and the center of love, she was always happy never got her
self to bordem, Tiffany liked to occupy herself with her own art projects and playing with her
little sister, her favorites were playing with the babie dolls and playing pet shop or playing
school, she always chose to be the teacher and enjoyed that part and she mentioned to her mom that
oneday she wanted to become a teacher though she was curious to find out what job paid the most.
Tiffany loved helping around the house she enjoyed doing little chores for her mom. Tiffany was a
gentle soul very loving, kind, caring, beautiful, smart, talented, artistic and she also loved
nature and the animals in it.
Tiffany attended reacently closed St.Pauls school of Staten Island New York, she was an outstanding
student with straight A's. Her teacher's loved her, she was not satisfied unless she got
90 or above on her tests.
Tiffany celebrated her b'day on July14th actually she celebrated three days in a row including
going to the beach on the 16th which was one of her wishes......just three days after On that
fateful day of July 17th 2006 she just woke up in the morning and told her father that she was going
to take the little poodle out to the front yard.A stray that was found in front of the house three
months ago. The mom did not have the heart to drop the dog off at a shelter since he was at a very
bad state of health fearing he would be put to sleep. After she brought him back to life she was
looking for a home for the little poodle though Tiffany constantly nagged her mom to keep it. Next
nobody knows what happened ................
Tiffany's intent was to save the poodle that ran to the street, only to get hit herself by the
car while standing on the sidewalk. The lady who drove the car said she never saw Tiffany she only
saw the dog and swerved the car to avoid the dog but did not know she had hit Tiffany. She was
critically injured and kept in a drug induced coma for the next 5 days. The doctors and the staff at
the hospital were trying to tell Tiffany's parents that there is nothing they could do for her,
which is the worst thing that any parent could ever want to hear and they should consider organ
donation. Though they finally agreed to after a long, agonising and painful week, they were
devastated to the fact that they couldn't take their daughter home.
Tiffany was a beautiful child inside and out. As mentioned she loved animals, loved
drawing, and loved life. She celebrated her birthday on July 14th her parents granted all her wishes
and she was very happy.
We miss you so very much Tiffany, fly with the angels little one.
Please accept my deepest condolences. - what a beautiful and wonderful soul she *is*, and she sounds so much like both my daughters that it made me cry so much to read that she's no longer physically here. I know she's with you though - and you will meet her again.
To:Tiffany use your angel wings and fly happily in Heaven.
Even though it's getting colder and people are getting older,You still are a great person inside and out . Have a happy life in Heaven . You are a saint
To:Tiffany use your angel wings and fly happily in Heaven.
Tiffany you may not have known me but I am the Dunnig's friend. Iwish you a happy life in heaven, and may peace be with you in Heaven.
I miss you so very much
Dear Tiffany,
It took lots of strength to even open this site. As you know, that I have been missing you even before you left us. After I left your house in 2004, I missed you and Chinker with my whole heart. Due to many obsticales I was not able to see both of you. I want you to know that when you use to wait for me to come home from work and the way you use to wait for me by the window made me feel whole. I know that everything came from your heart. You couldn't wait to show me your school work, I liked the way you use to show me off your 100 on your test. I sure miss that. I miss doing the airplane play with you. I remember when I had you up in the air you threw up on me and I loved you so much that I didn't even get mad. Remember you use to want to sleep with me then in the middle of the night you go back upstairs and come back to my bed early in the morning. We use to get ready in the morning. You use to feed the cat while I was making our tea. You were and still are a very special person in my life. Tiffany, I know that you are in good hands, you were so honest, sweet, caring, there was nothing wrong with you in my eyes. You were perfect. I miss you, I miss you and I miss you. I am just sorry that I didn't get a chance to buy you the bathrobe that you wanted. I will always love you.

PLEASE
'Please'
Please, don't ask me if I'm over it yet.
I'll never be over it.
Please, don't tell me she's in a better place.
She is'nt here with me.
Please, don't say at least she isn't suffering.
I haven't come to terms with why she had to suffer at all.
Please, don't tell me you know how I feel.
Unless you have lost a child.
Please, don't ask me if I feel better.
Bereavement isn't a condition that clears up.
Please, don't tell me at least you had her for
nine years.
What year would you choose for your child to die?
Please, don't tell me God never gives us more than we can bear. Please, just say you are sorry. Please, just say you remember my child, if you do.
Please, just let me talk about my child.
Please, mention my childs name.
Please, just let me cry.

Missing you today!
I was sitting in my living room just enjoying my sons playing and I thought about you for a moment. I thought about your smile, I thought about your energy, I thought about your demeanor, I thought about YOU. I didn't get to really know you but I find myself missing you. I guess that is why you are so special, because you can leave a lasting impression without even trying. We love you and we miss you, The Raddalgoda Family
