About 30 friends and family gathered to mourn 21-year-old Supul Jayasinghe at the breakwater in Flatrock, N.L. on Saturday 10 days after the Memorial University student died tragically in the nearby waters.
On Apr. 21, Supul slipped off some coastal rocks and fell into the ocean while he was chasing his dog, Neo. He had just finished his final exams and he was celebrating by taking a walk with his parents, Don and Chadima.
Supul Jayasinghe, a Memorial University student and aspiring doctor, slipped off a rocky outcrop while walking his dog and was carried into the open water Wednesday evening, his father says.
