I first met Uncle and Aunty back in the mid 80s when Ashok and I moved to the Richmond area
Uncle always had a nice smile and welcomed Ashok and myself into their home.
He was so proud of his family and it was a pleasure to talk to him at Ugadi and other events.
My deepest condolences on your loss and may you be comforted by your dear memories and good times

He leaves behind 4 children  Suresh and daughter-in-law Veena; Manjula and son-in-law Ranganath; Sunitha and son-in-law Adithya; and Mayura and son-in-law Geoffrey; and the pride of his life 8 beautiful grand-children : Harsha and his wife Anita, Vinodhini , Bindu , Ajay , Shashi , Renuka , Dharini , and Anand .

He is beloved by all in his family, friends, and as an elder in the Richmond Asian Indian community.  He leaves a legacy of leadership, strength, and moral fortitude that will mark generations to come.
