Vandanaa is a rare and beautiful soul you may come across but once in a lifetime. Sweetness and innocence defined her and never did a thought of ill-will pass even fleetingly through her mind.

     Soft-spoken, pure and innocent at heart, she adored children. Stories would be related and games played but her young friends would be left longing for yet more. Never to forget a birthday or anniversary, she would amaze her friends by unfailingly wishing them even if they lived in distant lands. With her words of comfort and reassurance and being a rock of support made her the first choice for her friends to confide in. Witty and easy to laugh, she made friends effortlessly.

    A warm and caring mother to her son Tejas, she thought the world of him, taught him our values and encouraged him to be true to his heart and empathise with all. She was a loving daughter to her parents and would eagerly await her brother’s phone calls from overseas. She leaves her husband, a better human being than he was when they first met. She was a special person for her many cousins, nephews and nieces.
