Dear Sankar
It is with deep sadness that I write to inform you that our Founder and Governing Director of the MG Kailis Group, Dr Michael George Kailis, passed away on 25 June, 1999.
Regrettably, Michael had not been well for several months and unfortunately the illness proved to be tougher to beat than the many challenges that Michael had surmounted during his lifetime.
How does one express the loss of someone of the magnitude of Michael Kailis? We have lost a very dear friend, our leader and mentor to the Group.
The foundation on which the MG Kailis Group has been built will remain an enduring monument to the vision, determination and drive demonstrated by Michael, who will be treasured by all as a great Western Australian.
We hope that the relationships which Michael has forged in his active commercial and community activities will be long remembered.
Yours sincerely
K G Palmer
Managing Director
M G Kailis Group
