Family Support

Srinivas Katekar (age 52) was born and brought up in Saidabad, India. He was a gentle human and a responsible father for three lovely kids (two girls and a boy). As every father, he wanted to provide better life for his kids, thus he travelled to US. Every day he'd toil in the kitchens of the restaurant to earn money but every night he slept with a satisfaction that he was able to provide a comfortable life for his kids and wife. As every other father, he dreamt of marrying his girls off in a pompous way. Like every other father, he dreamt of helping his son succeed in his career. But God had other plans for him. 

Like every other day, Srinivas woke up to follow his routine but felt unexplainable pain in his stomach and chest. The pain intensified with every minute passing, and we lost Srinivas even before making sense of the situation. Little did we or his family anticipate this as he was healthy man with no record of ailments. His kids lost a loving father and, his wife a responsible husband. If Srinivas was still here, the family would've thrived. Now that he's gone, the future of the family is jeopardized mentally, physically, and financially. We can never make up to the loss of the family, but we can sure try to provide financial support for them. 

We are trying to collect funds to send the mortal remains of Srinivas to his family in India and for the future of the kids. His wife deserves to see her husband one last time. His kids deserve a good life despite the loss. 

They say "Maanava seva ye Maadhava seva" meaning serving a man in need is equivalent to serving the God himself. Please step up and contribute to the fund no matter how small the amount is. We pledge to use 100% of the fund to the benefit of Srinivas's family.
