LALA, Ramanbhai. Dearly loved brother to Indiraben, brother-in-law to Dineshbhai. Uncle (mama) to Suran, Priya, Raksha, Preschalan and Trishna and great uncle (dada) to Karisha and Aarin.
You were an inspiration to us all, the patriarch of the family, our guiding light and compass. Your wisdom, wealth of knowledge and stories you shared with us, the calls to pick up your finest produce, the requests for a chat disguised as things that need repair and the advice or conversation you offered through love will be cherished forever. We have so many fond memories that we will hold dearly in our hearts forever.

Until we meet again,
Rest in peace, Om Shanti

We will always remember you as the family´s guiding hand, someone who could keep us enthralled with stories, and as selfless as you were welcoming towards your loved ones.
