It is with great sadness and disbelief that we announce the sudden and very unexpected passing of Rajendran Somasundaram at only 39 years old.  [ VEC/VIT college - CSE 2002 Batch]

From his family, we came to know that he had a minor slip and fall accident on the road as he was walking his way home on a June evening. A day or two later, he suffered an irreversible brain stroke and passed away on June 9th, 2020.

Rajendran leaves behind his loving wife Manimala and a 6-year-old daughter Krishitha Rajendran . They are devastated with the loss of their amazing husband and a wonderful father.


Rajendran is a great human and known for his happy face at any situation. He would light up any room he entered with his warm smile, kind words, and the way he treated everyone he met. He loved and cared deeply for everyone around him whether it was his family, friends, or co-workers and he never held back in showing his feelings for us all.

With the sudden loss of this wonderful human being. The family is need of any and all support we can give during this time of grieving and carving out a new way of life without him. This loss of their husband and father now creates a huge financial burden as Rajendran was the sole provider for his family.

The family needs help with daily living expenses, raising the daughter and providing her a quality education which was the only dream of the father.  The funds will help out tremendously, while they try to work out the intricate details of day to day life without Rajendran.

This loss is deeply personal, which makes us realize that there is no one that can ever make us feel the way he did.... Please keep this family in your prayers, and we thank you for any help you may give. 

Even if you are not in a position to help out, please share this GoFundMe page with your friends and family.
