Sanjay R.
Patel
May 28, 1966 — Jun 16, 2019
San Jose
It is with sadness to say that Sanjay passed on June 16th 2019 at home in San Jose, CA with family by his side at the young age of 53. Sanjay will be remembered by many for his generosity and the tremendous impact he had on the lives' of others.
Sanjay moved to the states after being born in Fiji and grew up in San Francisco, then later moving to San Jose in 1980. He loved to build things for others, eat different kinds of food, and had a passion for sports cars. Sanjay treated his friends as family and would do anything in his power to help anyone that was lucky enough to meet him.
The last 5 years of his life were plagued with obstacles. He fought cancer with tremendous strength going through multiple rounds of surgeries, radiation sessions, and chemotherapy treatments. With the support of his loving wife, Nancy and two sons, Sunny and Jimmy, he was able to endure it all, fight to the very last minute, and live life to the fullest.
He leaves behind his wife and two sons who will carry on not only his legacy, but that of his ancestors.
