In Memory of Monil Sharma

Hello everyone,

My name is Jasmeet Taheem, and I am starting this GoFundMe to help my sister Avneet Taheem and her boyfriend, Monil Sharma's, family during this incredibly difficult time.

Monil has passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, December 14. This sudden loss has left both families devastated. He was a man of honor - a by-law officer working for the city of Toronto, and a long-time security guard at Michael Garron Hospital. His name was spoken of with high regards and respect in rooms he was not in, and his legacy should carry on this way. A hard-working, gentle, warm, full-of-life man who shall not be forgotten. A man who put others before himself - a man of grit. His loss is not only felt by my sister and his family, but also his co-workers at Michael Garron and the city of Toronto.

The funds raised here will help cover funeral costs, and provide some stability while we navigate through this heartbreaking loss. Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference and be deeply appreciated.

For anyone who needs to hear this, please know you are not alone, and you are loved. Don’t be afraid to ask for help — there is always hope and brighter days ahead. To chose to publicly express your feelings takes courage, and this situation serves a powerful reminder that we are all human and interconnected. Reaching out for support, whether from loved ones, professionals, or communities, is a brave step towards healing. You don’t have to carry your burdens alone — there is always someone willing to listen and help. Sometimes, just knowing that others care can make all the difference. Keep holding on, and know that your feelings are valid. Better days are always possible, even when it feels hard to believe. You matter, and your well-being is important.

Thank you for your support, love, and kindness during this challenging time.

Sincerely,

Jasmeet
