To the Family and Friends of Dr. Sheilesh Dave:
I just heard today about your loss and I am shocked and saddened. Sheilesh and I played hockey together in WillowRidge when we were children, spent some time at school together and we were both surprised to see each other recently when I showed up as a patient in his office.
He spoke fondly of his children and family. My sincere condolences and thoughts too are now with you.

To Dr. Dave's family & friends:
The day after my surgery, Dr. Dave phoned. My husband answered the phone and, being preoccupied, his old farming background kicked in. He passed the phone to me announcing that my 'veterinarian' was on the phone. Another time, my husband thought Dr. Dave wanted to buy a silo. Dr. Dave, his staff and I have always laughed remembering these ocurances.
With fond memories, he will be missed.

Dear Chaitali,
Even though we are thousands of miles apart, we have always thought of you and Sheilesh as close and true friends.
Sheilesh was an exceptional man. Demanding on himself and tolerant with others. A formidable achiever; yet modest and unpretentious. Discreet about himself; but extremely interested in others and curious about people, cultures and countries. Often serious and often funny.
Douglas remembers his pizzas.
Judith the way he laughed.
We will miss him dearly.
Hugs and kisses from all of us here in Brussels.

Chaitali - We are so, so sorry for your loss. Although we haven’t had the opportunity to see each other lately, please know that you are not alone. Alexa and Shravan played so nicely together in Time for 2’s and at the JCC summer camp… maybe if you need a break we can arrange for them to meet again one afternoon? If there is anything that we can do to help you in anyway, please do not hesitate to call us at anytime, even if it is only to talk.
Our sincere thoughts and prayers are with you.

Chaitali and family,
As you may know, my relationship with Sheilesh began as his banker but that soon transformed into my becoming his patient and he becoming my friend. While attending his service on March 13, I realized how much I did not know about Sheilesh and wished I had the opportunity to get to know him better. He was a fine young man and a leader in his field. God Bless you all.

I was absolutely devastated when I heard the sad news about the passing of Dr. Dave. He was my periodonist for the past couple of years. He was a shining star in his field. When I first met him I thought he was far too young to be holding the position that he held but I quickly realized that he just looked young, when in fact he was a true professional and wise beyond his years. He often spoke of his family and I would like to say how sorry I am for your loss.

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to Dr. Davé’s friends and family. I was his patient for the past year. Although I was always afraid of getting work done on my teeth, I have to say that he always made me feel comfortable and he also made me laugh (not an easy task when I was so nervous!). I remember coming in to see him after I had a tooth pulled and I said “I think you left a piece of tooth behind”. Dr. Davé and his assistant burst out laughing. He said through his laughter “that is a stitch, not a tooth” and he told me about a saying he had in his old office that read “The tooth, the whole tooth, and nothing but the tooth”. I still smile thinking about that. His laughter, interaction with staff and patients, and his professional competence were second to none. He will be missed.

As he shone in life, so he will continue to shine through his children. Sheilesh had a smile that spoke volumes about what he held in his heart. When he was with his family you could feel the joy and love that radiated through him. Although he is physically absent, the most important part of him is fully present in his beautiful wife and children. I need only to see his son's smile to know Sheilesh will always be a part of this world. Chaitali, we send much love to you and your family and would love to be a continuing support for you at any time you may need us.

It was a privilege to know Sheilesh professionally. He was a specialist with a very personal touch and was always interested in his patients receiving the best of care. I was fortunate that he agreed to accept referrals. I will always remember his arrival at my office with a smile, a thank-you and a box of chocolates when I first started referring.

Recently I received some very kind words from Dr. Amritlal Dave to cope with a very stressful event in my life. I will always remember his advice and inspirational words about the importance of family and persons close to us over everything else. Although I did not know Sheilesh personally I know from my time with his father that he was raised in a loving family. Please accept my sincerest and deepest condolences on the loss of your son, husband, and father.
