# In Loving Memory of Mani Chandra Teja Gaddam: Support for His Family
It is with profound sadness that we share the heartbreaking loss of our beloved cousin, **Mani Chandra Teja Gaddam**, who tragically passed away on **July 12, 2026**, in a skydiving accident in Orange County, Boston, MA.
Chandra was an exceptionally bright, kind, and hardworking young man with a passion for learning and embracing new challenges. His family made countless sacrifices throughout his life, moving from Vijayawada to Hyderabad to support his education and investing their savings to help him achieve his dreams. Through his dedication and their unwavering support, he graduated from Northeastern University, MA and had recently begun his professional career.
Alongside his academic and professional achievements, Mani believed in pursuing his passions and making the most of every opportunity. He recently earned his **A License** in skydiving and was excited to continue exploring the sport he loved and the adventures that lay ahead.
His sudden passing has left his family devastated, both emotionally and financially. We are raising funds to help ease the financial burden during this incredibly difficult time, including funeral and related expenses. Every contribution, no matter the amount, will make a meaningful difference and help support the family that gave everything to help him build a brighter future.
If you're unable to contribute, please consider sharing this fundraiser. Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and prayers as we remember and honor Mani Chandra Teja.
