Kallol Kumar Saha

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the unexpected passing of Kallol Kumar Saha, age 45, on August 7, 2023, in Memphis, TN. Kallol was born on April 22, 1978, in Hilo, Hawaii. He was a beloved son of Kartik and Rina Saha.
Kallol lived a life based on love and devotion, always recognizing the importance of family.

Kallol's genuine demeanor, enchanting smile, and gentle nature allowed him to establish lasting connections with those around him effortlessly.

Kallol was not only a compassionate physician, but he was also a symbol of resilience. He navigated physical challenges, battling cancer during his medical school years with unyielding determination. Undeterred by adversity, he prevailed, allowing nothing to sway his dreams and virtuous pursuit of earning his medical degree. Kallol served in the Air Force and faithfully practiced Family Medicine and Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, dedicating his life to assisting others during their most vulnerable times.
Educational achievements played a significant role in Kallol's life. He obtained a Bachelor of Science degree with honors from Creighton University and further pursued extensive education. In addition to finally obtaining his cherished MD from Creighton University School of Medicine, Kallol further earned an MPH degree from East Tennessee State University and an MBA from the University of Tennessee Chattanooga.
Finding solace in his hobbies, Kallol spent joyous moments pursuing activities that energized his spirit. An avid tennis player and golfer, he embraced a life full of movement and ambition.
Believing in the enduring power of faith, Kallol found solace, comfort, and spiritual growth in his personal studies of the Bhagavad Gita and at his place of worship, Hope Church in Memphis.
