Mr.Arunachalam and his wife Mrs.Vijaya came to US to visit his son's family here in Jacksonville and were planning to travel to Canada next month to visit their daughter Kiruthika Arunachalam, however, on April 29, 2024 he experienced a sudden heart attack and passed away, leaving his entire family in distress.

Mr. Arunachalam is survived by his loving wife Mrs.Vijaya and 2 children - son Kishore Kanna, and daughter Kiruthika, who meant the world to him. By contributing to this family, you are not only offering a helping hand to his family but also celebrating Arunachalam's life and the profound impact he had on those around him. As a respect to such a resilient and loving family, let us come together to remember him and support the causes he cherished.
This fundraiser aims to support this family during this challenging time by helping to cover the funeral costs and medical bills due this unexpected event.

Here is a short biography of Mr. Arunachalam's life and his family:
Arunachalam hailed from Vallior, Tamil Nadu, He was a bright and disciplined child who lost his mother at the age of 6 and grew up, nurtured with his 6 other siblings. He completed his Diploma Graduation in Mechanical Engineering from Madurai Polytechnic College and pursued his career as a Sales and Service Executive at Larsen and Toubro. He got married to Vijaya Athi Sankaran from Alangulam, Tenkasi, in 1986.He started an MRF Tyres Exclusive dealership business in Madurai until he met with a traumatic brain injury at a road accident in November 2013 at Madurai, which left him in a coma for 6 months. The family along with son-in-law Sharran Sundar, took great care of him to bring him back to life. Despite their efforts, he lost all his memories and emotional intelligence forever. Recently, Mr Arunachalam's wife Vijaya was diagnosed with breast cancer. As a family, they had to navigate these difficult situations in their life. Arunachalam was a pillar of kindness and generosity in his community, and in keeping with his spirit of giving, part of the proceeds will also go towards a charity that was close to his heart, ensuring his legacy of service continues. His family considers him as a God as he taught them resilience, good traits, and taught the kids to be knowledgeable and well-mannered, which shows in the way the family has handled their entire journey with so many challenges. Thanks you everyone for your support!!!!
