It is with deep sorrow that we announce the peaceful passing of our beloved mother, Ansuya Shantilal Dave, at the age of 93 years. She left us peacefully on Tuesday, December 31, 2024, surrounded by the love of her family.

She was born on March 18, 1931, and was a woman who exemplified grace, wisdom and strength. Throughout her long and fulfilling life, she touched the hearts of everyone she met. She lived with kindness and compassion, offering her support and love to her family, friends and all who had the privilege of knowing her.
