This is to sorrowfully notify all Musomians and all our friends from Mwanza District (Tanzania) about untimely demise of late Mr. Suryakant Trivedi who passed away last Sunday February 10, 2008.

I was told, he got an attack in the plane while traveling to Cyprus for an anticipated enjoyable holiday. He was accompanied by his wife, son-in-law and daughter.

He was immediately admitted in the hospital in Cyprus and showed good sign of recovery while kept in ICU. But, unfortunately, he got another fatal attack and thus his sacred soul took a final journey to heaven instead.

Let us all collectively pray to Almighty God to rest his soul in peace and bestow his immediate family members with enormous strength to endure such a shocking and sorrowful trail of pain that they might be undergoing. My personal sincere condolences to all immediate family members concerned.

Late Mr. Trivedi, myself, Mr. Yogendra Vyas, Mr. Purohit and late Mr. Kanubhai Patel worked for Barclays Bank DCO in Mwanza and Musoma. All five of us were very good friends. Regretfully, we have now lost two.

Late Mr. Trivedi (74) whom I knew right from my school age was a very learned and charming person. He served our society in several respects including performing matrimonial ceremonies and kathas. We have lost a very good friend and particularly Mr. Vyas,  Mr. Purohit and myself will miss him a lot.
