Ok. I take amazinglatinoamericafan post that the twins are Natalie & Nadiya, and I found this couple of things:
First:
SENEWIRATNE SQUADRON LEADER ELROY SENEWIRATNE USP (Retd S.L.A.F.) Safe in the Arms of Jesus. Dearly beloved husband of late Stella, precious father of Ralston (Canada), Ingrid (Sri Lankan Air Lines) and Bernadine (U.S.A.), father-in-law of Shelagh, Weerasiri and Andy, loving brother of Maureen, Godfrey, Ronald and Mignon, dearly loved papa of Tania, Nientara, Natalie, Nadiya and Manoj.As we know this:
They are Nadine and Natalie from New York City. They are twin sisters born in New York City. But their family is from Sri Lanka and they were raised there. They moved back to NYC when they were in their teens. One is attending college to become a physical therapist and the other works for a non-profit organization with ties to Sri Lanka.I focused on Bernardine Serewiratne, and I discovered this:
Aunty Bernie’s Journal
December 13th 2006 – Christmas Cheer
It was a novel experience at Bridge2Peace.
The first Christmas celebration ever experienced not just by the children but by the whole village. The parents requested that we visit little hamlets where the elders could enjoy this moment. ‘Santa Claus’ had never ever visited the village. ‘Viro’ the clown was definitely a first time too. Santa’s identity remains a secret !
santa_and-kidsDecember 28th 2006 – A day to remember
Even though the school was officially closed, a visit by my daughter Nientara, stirred the village into action. The camaraderie was obvious as they greeted her, surprising us all with a full show of all the students’ parents and elders of the village.
It was a joyful occasion as my husband, twin daughters Nadiya and Natalie, Nientara’s colleagues Charlie Munford and Zuika Kriegar watched in awe as the once overgrown site they had prepared physically, now hummed with happy children. We shared a typical day and many unfolding phenomena ! I watched the active involvement of my family with great pride. It was a moment locked in my memory of true motherhood bliss !Ms. Anderson (Serewitnare is her single las name) is the founder and directress of Bridge2Peace, an USA charitable organization who works in Sri Lanka.
I also found a small picture of Ms. Anderson's daughter; is dated on 2006, but you can see the resemblance. I guess I found the identity of the twins.
