Dear friends, and family,
It is with a heavy heart that I am announcing the death of Rakesh Desai due to COVID-19. For those of you that knew him, you knew that he was a fighter. Rakesh fought till the very end — so much so, that none of us thought it was the end just yet. He was 59.
They — meaning anyone — will tell you that you should prepare for death. Death is inevitable. No one is too good to beat it. Well Rakesh deserved to, if anyone. He brightened the lives of so many with his belly laugh, sense of humor, and selfless means of carrying himself.
He was so rare. Heaven truly gained an angel to be reckoned with — in the best way.
As you can imagine, our family wants to donate is his memory. That is why I am reaching out to you all in hopes that you’ll show your support. Not for me, if even not for his son Dharmik, but for Rakesh.
The donation will be used in memory of Rakesh.
Thank you so much for even considering to donate and for taking the time to read about our beloved Rakesh. He loves you. I mean it. Even if he didn’t know you directly.
Here you will find a link to the fundraiser we have started to keep his memory alive.
Blessings,
Unnati Shah on behalf of the Desai family
