Jehangir BALSARA Obituary

Published by Ottawa Citizen on Nov. 13, 2013.
BALSARA, Jehangir
It is with deep sorrow that we announce Jehangir's sudden and unexpected passing on November 8, 2013 at the age of 67. Beloved husband to Dinaz and a loving father to Mehrzad (Andrea), Firoozeh (Kawshal) and Kyle. Predeceased by his loving parents Nariman and Mani. He will be dearly missed by his family and friends all over the world, including Aspi and Siloo, Farzana, Porus, Ayaan and Zeus, Farhad and Reshma, Dinoo and Rusi, Feruza and Zarir, Son and Reshmi. A special thanks to loved ones in Ottawa, Toronto, Guelph, Montreal and Mauritius for their support. An accountant by trade, Jehangir's generous nature, sense of humour and deep devotion to his family and friends is a comfort to the many who loved him. Jeh often spoke fondly of his years in India, growing up in Bulsar before moving to Mumbai. There, he met the love of his life, started his family and worked for Hoechst before moving to Canada. Jeh was a kind and selfless man who brought joy to those who had the pleasure of knowing him. He will be dearly missed. Family and friends are invited to visit at the West Chapel of Hulse, Playfair & McGarry, 150 Woodroffe Avenue (at Richmond Road) on Thursday, November 14th at 2pm.

Dinaz and family, my sincere condolences to you and your family in your time of grief. Keep his memory alive and he will never be gone. Jehangir, when I first started in accounting, you were working in my first office - we shared many laughs, and your gentle, good-humoured nature was always a pleasure to be around. We shared good times going out for a few after work , and again, many many laughs. Those are the good memories I shall retain, and the memories will be eternal. Godspeed, my friend. Sleep well. Love Scott and Beverley MacInnes and family.
