Manubhai patel

It is with profound sadness and deep respect that we announce the peaceful passing of Manubhai Patel, a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, who departed this world on February 23, 2026, at the age of 97. Surrounded by the love and warmth of his family, Manubhai left us at his home, enveloped by the presence of his children, daughter-in-law, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Manubhai was born on July 7, 1928, in the serene village of Sojitra, Anand, to his cherished parents, Mani Ben and Mangalbhai. From an early age, Manubhai exhibited the virtues of kindness, determination, and wisdom that would later define his life and legacy. In 1946, at the tender age of 18, Manubhai married his lifelong partner, Kusumben, who was then 14 years old. Together, they embarked on a journey of love and companionship that spanned nearly eight decades. Their union was a testament to enduring love and mutual respect, serving as a beacon of inspiration for all who knew them. Manubhai was a dedicated family man, always placing his loved ones at the center of his world. He is survived by his devoted wife, Kusumben Patel, and their children: Dilipbhai and his wife Amitaben, Rajubhai and his wife Hemaxuben, Paresh and his wife Rashmiben, and Varsha and her husband Mukesh Kumar. His legacy continues through his six grandchildren—Manali, Ashruti, Sagar, Saurin, Rushabh, and Yash—and his five great-grandchildren—Mira, Mahi, Jiya, Ashvi, and Yug—each of whom he cherished deeply. Though predeceased by his family in Naranpura, Ahmedabad, Manubhai's spirit and love for family extended far beyond his immediate circle, touching the lives of all who had the privilege of knowing him. A service to honor and celebrate Manubhai's extraordinary life will be held on February 28, 2026, at 9:00 AM at the family residence, located at C-1 Mrudul Society, Solaroad, Naranpura, Ahmedabad-380013. Friends, family, and all whose lives were touched by Manubhai are invited to join in commemorating a life well-lived and a spirit that will endure in our hearts. In memory of Manubhai Patel, let us celebrate the legacy of a man who lived with integrity, loved unconditionally, and left an indelible mark on all who were fortunate to cross his path. His life was a testament to the power of love, family, and community, and he will be dearly missed, yet fondly remembered.
