Chandrakant Shankarlal Shah's Obituary
It is with deep sorrow and profound respect that we announce the passing of Chandrakant Shankarlal Shah, who left this world peacefully on 12/31/2025 at the age of 89, surrounded by his loved ones.
Born on September 3, 1936 in Gujarat, India, and later migrating to the USA in 1997 he lived a long and meaningful life defined by integrity, humility, and unwavering dedication to his family. He was a devoted husband, a loving father, and a proud grandfather. His life was anchored in strong values, hard work, and quiet resilience—principles he passed on through example rather than words.
Throughout his life, Chandrakant was known for his kindness, generosity, and faith. He remained a steady source of guidance and strength for those around him. His presence was calming, his advice thoughtful, and his love unconditional.
A funeral service will be held on January 3, 2026 at 3 PM at Chapel of the Chimes, Hayward where family and friends will gather to honor his life and legacy.
Though he is no longer with us in physical form, Chandrakant’s values, teachings, and love will continue to guide and inspire us. He will be deeply missed and forever remembered.**
