Ashok Parekh Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jun. 5, 2016.
Dr. Ashok Parekh, 62 years old, of Middletown CT, died Sunday, June 5th, 2016. He was born in Gujarat, India in 1953. He attended Rajpipla High School in Rajpipla, Gujarat and medical school at M. S. University in Baroda, Gujarat. After his marriage to Smita Parekh in 1977, he moved to live with her and her family in Lynchburg, Virginia in 1979. Later that year after he was accepted into the Psychiatry residency program at Connecticut Valley Hospital, Ashok and his wife moved to Middletown, Connecticut. For many years, Ashok had a private practice in Middletown, and also worked at Elmcrest, and Rushford. He finally retired from Connecticut Valley Hospital in 2009. However his work was not done. After retirement, Ashok continued to work at Charter Oak Family Health Center, Natchaug Hospital, and United Community and Family Services until he was sadly diagnosed with brain cancer in 2015. His life, work, love, and legacy will forever live in the hearts of his family and friends. He is survived by his wife Smita Parekh, his son Parag Parekh (daughter-in-law Sneha Parekh), his daughter Megha Parekh, his grandchildren Aryan and Aaniya Parekh, and his mother Diwaliben.

My heart is sad after learning of this news.

I used to do Dr. Parek's On-Call schedule at RVS.

I also retired from the State in '2009. Dr. Parek came into my office, shook my hand, and thanked me for being his co-worker, and for being "fair" while distributing the on-call overtime to the doctors.

I also used to work with him at CVH.

My heart goes out to the family, as Dr. Parek was very well liked.

You will be missed Dr. Parek.

Dr Ashokkumar _ Known as Thakur _ was indeed Krishna and was always a path shower to so many _ friends and relatives too including me.

His premature departure to heavenly abode is a great loss can not be spelled out properly.

Dr Ashok Kumar was the person from whom I learnt to Pray Lord Ganesh Ji. He is the person who re-concreted in me Shraddha Bhakti,Lagan and Nishtha in Almighty Ishwar.

We all pray God to grant an eternal peace to his Soul and provide enough courage to all of us to bear with his physical Loss.

I know that whenever we think of him- he will touch our heart with a "Unique Smile- Prassan Vadan

RIP my friend.
May God give your departed soul an eternal peace and strength to Smita and family to bear loss. You will be missed by many from BMC 1973 batch.
I cannot forget your courage to share your illness with all the classmates and also at the same time sending caring message for Daksha's health.
