This memorial website was created in the memory of our beloved Naresh Jayant  who was born in India on April 01, 1963 and passed away on June 10, 2006 at the age of 43. He was an awesome husband, and a wonderful father. I have yet to see another wonderful human being like him.

Naresh always  helped the poor. Naresh sponsored and educated 2 poor children in India who are now well educated. Naresh also sponsored eye surgery for many blind people through Sankaranetralaya.Naresh could never say no to a needy person.

His major passion in life was reading. He was an avid reader and read  books of all kinds. He was also a great sports fan.He loved all sports from Base ball to Cricket, Football to Soccer, Tennis to Golf. But his favorite sport was to slouch on the couch and watch these games on TV or read  a book. Well he also enjoyed a good nap.

He wanted to travel all over the world. He would always talk about taking vaction to Rome, Australia etc.He enjoyed vacation and touring. But he was a hard worker too and literally worshipped his work.

He was an excellent Dad. He loved his children more than his life. His dream was to attend his children's graduation and dance in his daughter's wedding.

I have never seen a more patient and loving man.He was the light of our lives.He was the sun of our universe. Without him his Jayant family is lost.

We will love him and remember him for forever. 

A poem for Dad by Girish

Oh! Dad We miss you so

You always showed us the right way to go

We all love you 

And that is quite true

You gave good advice to us all

You will always be my sweet pal

Although now you are somewhere we cannot see

You will always be in our memory

You were always good end,middle or start

Your handsome face will always appear in out hearts.

You are the best ever

You were never cruel, never!

Well,  we will miss you

This poem is special for you
