Arun Abraham Obituary

Arun Abraham Vadavuparampil, 41, of New York, NY passed away unexpectedly on June 5, 2023. Born March 12, 1982 in Kerala, India to Thomas Abraham Vadavuparampil and Annamma (Chaluparambil) Abraham, he grew up in West Hartford, CT after immigrating to the U.S. as a child. Arun was a well-respected member of the international banking community and an accomplished corporate and securities attorney. He received his undergraduate degree in Mathematics and Philosophy from Yale University followed by his J.D. from USC Gould School of Law and later his MBA from The University of Chicago Booth School of Business.

Arun leaves behind his beloved son, Ethan Abraham, his life's greatest joy; his sister, Anu Abraham; his parents, Thomas and Annamma Abraham; Ethan's mother, Leah (Noble) Abraham, and his many cherished cousins, aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews, colleagues and friends. Arun was fiercely ambitious from a young age and would want to be remembered for his passion for excellence, his humor and his devotion as a father to Ethan. He will be deeply missed by all those who knew him.

A Funeral Service will be today, Saturday, (June 10), 8:30 a.m. at St. Mary's Knanaya Church, 15-19 Price Boulevard, West Hartford, CT. Burial services will follow at West Meadow Cemetery, in Newington, CT. Family and friends are invited to visit with the family at the St. Mary's Parish Hall, opposite the cemetery at 626 Willard Avenue, for a reception following the burial.

Arun was a regular at the bar I work at in NYC. I´m sad to hear he´s gone. He was always a character & entertaining to say the least. He loved his son a lot & always showed us photos of him. His son was his absolute pride and joy. He also talked adoringly of his mom & his sister. I´m so sorry for your loss.

I still remember his high school graduation ceremony in Hartford. I am praying for Thampichayan and Annamma Aunty and the family to get strength to survive these difficult and agonizing times
