Hemlata Shah's Obituary
Hemlata Shah was an extraordinaire to anyone who encountered her warm, gracious and enveloping aura. With her children and husband in her arms and her heart on her shoulder, she moved to the United States in September 1978 with an entrepreneurial spirit, knowing her family’s path to success was rooted in happiness and never-ending support. Her selfless radiation of warmth was based on her Hindu principles, and her words voice strongly that “There is no happiness if there is no belief in God.” She was the mother to three kids, Jaymini, Dipak and Ketki and wife of Suresh Shah. She has six grandchildren, Sonali, Radhika, Arjun, Pratham, Sariana and Sur Shah. Hemlata was truly a second mother to everyone—her love did not discriminate or falter at the sight of disappointment or hardship. Her strength constantly prevailed and her legacy lives through the lessons she instilled in her loved ones. Love irrevocably, love endlessly, love fearlessly and love unconditionally because it is the love that Hemlata taught us that will be the remedy to any sorrow or setback we face. Her soul lives on eternally, and may she Rest In Peace.
