  1. We will miss you ❤️

    I pray that I inherit your jolly, happy, humerous personality.
    Your happiness matters the most. If you are happy where you are at in heaven, I’m happy too. I shed tears only because I miss you so much. You will always be remembered.

    When we get together now, laughing and singing, I know your blessings will be with us forever and ever. I wish I could cherish all the funny happy memories before you left us. God did not give me that chance. I just pray that you be with us when we do that. We all love you so much ❤️🥰

    I am happy that you are free of all the pain and frustrations. I know your soul will eternally be with us. I forgot to tell you that I love the name you have given me —- Krishna — to be remembered by yours and ours lord Krishna.

    Love you always

  3. “It’s hard to put into words how deeply saddened I am by your passing. You touched so many lives with your kindness, your strength, and your genuine heart. You were more than just a friend — you were family, a guiding light, and someone who always made others feel seen and valued.

    I’ll forever cherish the memories we shared — the conversations, the laughter, and even the quiet moments that now mean so much more.

    Rest in peace. You may be gone, but you will never be forgotten.

  4. Dear Ramesh Fua,

    I don’t know where to start but you always going to be in our hearts, specially me as most wonderful person I ever met. I know I always called you as “ Dharmendra” ( famous movie star) and I remember you always laughing. But I am really grateful having you in my life , specially in my ups and downs. I remember we used to go watch movies in India , you me and Foi. I remember we were singing together, we were drinking together. But I am specifically thankful to you that I be able to buy my first House in USA just because of you , I remember I didn’t had enough money for down payment and you sent me a check on my first phone call without asking any questions. I remember when my sister was getting married you sent my dad money without asking any question. You just said i trust you.

    Who ever I am today , you are one of those people who influence and helped me.

    Thank you for everything.

    There are so many things I can write but my mind is blocked. But I am sure when I go other world , I want you to meet first.

    See you other side ,
    Till then love you and Miss you.

    I feel you called your time few years early, I was seeding thoughts of having one more summer trip next year. You were always special elderly person in the family for me and learn a lot from you about – How to live life happily till the last breath we are blessed by god. Thanks for showing that happy path to us and many more in the family. We share same interest with two things; singing and drinking, so I’d give my good bye to you with sweet words that are coming to me…

    Gili si subah…
    Khwabon mein bheegi fiza
    Gili si subah…
    Khwabon mein bheegi fiza

    Ek khwab mein kho gayi thi
    Der se jaagi subah
    Gili si subah…”

    Om Shanti! Jai Shri Krishna

  11. “એક ગીત જે ક્યારેય બંધ નથી થયુ“

    દુનિયા થી વિદાય લઈ લીધી.
    સંબંધો થી વિદાય લઈ લીધી.
    પણ મન અને હૃદયમાં કાયમી
    સ્થાઈ થઈ.
    કેવી રીતે વિદાય લેશો?

    તમારા ગીતો.
    તમારી લાગણી.
    તમારું સંગીત પ્રત્યે સમર્પણ અને
    જીવનને પુરેપૂરી માણવાની ઘેલછા.
    તમારી વિદાય બાદ પણ વિદાય નહીં લે.

    તમારી પાસે શીખેલા જીવનના અમૂલ્ય પાઠ.
    તમારી સાથે વિતાવેલી જીવનની સ્વર્ણિમ પળો.
    અને
    તમારા યાદોની સુવાસ.
    તમારી વિદાય બાદ પણ વિદાય નહીં લે.

    કહે છે કે, જન્મ પછી પણ જન્મ હોય છે.
    અને જો એવું હોય તો, પ્રભુને પ્રાર્થના છે—
    કે આવતા જન્મની વિદાય પહેલાં,
    એક વાર ફરીથી સંગીત, જીવન અને ઉત્સવ માટે મળીએ.

    કારણ કે એના વગર,
    તમારી વિદાય પણ વિદાય નહીં લે.

    – Prajay Patel

    “A Song That Never Stopped Playing”

    You have taken leave from this world.
    You have taken leave from all relationships.
    And yet, within the heart and soul,
    you remain eternally rooted.
    How does one truly say goodbye to you?

    Your songs.
    Your emotions.
    Your deep devotion to music.
    Your insatiable thirst to live life to the fullest.
    Even after your departure—
    they have not left us.

    The priceless lessons we learned from you.
    The golden moments we lived with you.
    And the lingering fragrance of your memories—
    even after your farewell,
    they do not fade.

    They say there is life beyond this life.
    And if that is true,
    We pray to the Divine:
    before we part ways again in another lifetime,
    let us meet once more—
    for music, for life, and for celebration.

    Because without all of that,
    even your farewell
    is not a true farewell.

  16. To Rameshdada❤️

    🎵 Ramesh – Ame Tamne Yaad Karshu 🎵

    (Verse 1)
    Mota bhai(Mahendra)no vahlo, ramat no sathi..
    Nana bhai(Dhirendra)no ladko, ghar ni khushbu..
    Ranjan no dularo, aankho no tara..
    Vinod no abhiman, dil thi pyara..

    Five siblings, one shining star✨
    The one who danced, no matter where we are..
    Grandkids’ hero, always near,
    In every laugh, we feel you here.!

    RameshBhai, tara VINA(Vinabaa) vina ne khali lage duniya..
    Tame hata raag ni dhun, ane dil na sur VINA ni duniyana❣️
    Party ho ke dhoom, tame hamesha centre ma,
    Music no lover, nache che duniya tamara geet ma.!

    (Verse 2)
    From Garba beats to disco nights,
    He lit the world with festive lights💫
    Not just an father uncle, but best friend too,
    Every kid adored you, through and through.💓

    Always in for fun, never said no,
    Wherever you went, love would flow.
    Your laughter still echoes in these halls,
    Your memories dance on these walls.

    (Bridge – Gujarati & English)
    Masti no raja, party no king,
    Tara vina, sukh bhi lage missing.
    Tame gaya nahi, tame toh rehya,
    Dil ma, geet ma, amesha baseya.

    “Jamaaiyo na yaar, vaat-vato na sathi,
    Rameshbhai hata badha na raji.”

    (Final Chorus)
    Ramesh Mota Bhai, ek ujalo naam,
    Tamaru jeevan — ek prem no kaam.
    Today we say goodbye, but not farewell,
    Your love in our hearts will forever dwell.

    (Outro – softly)
    Nana Bhai no ladko, ame tamne yaad karshu,
    Tamari hasya ni goonj, sada jivtu rakhshu.
    Till we meet again, in music and in light,
    Dance among the stars, in heaven’s height.!

    Your loving grandchild
    -Aesha❤️

    Rest easy dada, u r loved by all of us!
    See u otherside soon!

  17. Dear Rameshlal🎶🌺🎶,

    You are resting in Peace. I do not have the words or courage to say goodbye to my best friend. I met you as my sister Vina’s husband. Your caring nature and keeping in touch with us. You and my husband also created friendship bond with you.
    Your special trip to Ottawa with Vina, Chimanlal and Sudha with her Son in law was unforgettable. Created musical event at my home. Remembering you and Vina’s duets songs.
    I was in U.K. Last week. My sister Vina phoned me and said I was in Rameshlal’s thoughts. I would regret if I didn’t pick up the phone. You said Jai Shree Krishna to me. And in a few days, when I was returning back to Canada, I saw very sad news. You must have known your departure time was coming closer. You didn’t say about it but acted on your feelings. Your brought happiness, joy, music and much more to people in your life. You loved everyone unconditionally.
    Rameshlal you are in happy place. May your soul Rest In Peace. You will always will be remembered.
    Thanks 🙏🏻 Jai Shree Krishna 🙏🏻
