October 18, 1947 – Rajkot, India
March 9, 2025 – Calgary, Alberta

It is with great heartbreak that the family of Varsha Rajnikant Vyas of Calgary, Alberta announce her passing on March 9, 2025 at the age of 77 years.

Varsha was born in Rajkot, India on October 18, 1947. She was born into a large family as one of eight sisters and one brother. She lived in Rajkot until marriage in May 1971, at which point she moved to Uganda, Africa. In 1972 the family was forced to flee Uganda and returned to India. She gave birth to her son a week later in September 1972 and her daughter was born in April 1974. The family lived in India until they returned to Africa in 1978, the first two years in Kenya and then in Uganda. In 1989 the family emigrated to Canada where Varsha made Calgary her home for 36 years. She loved Calgary in large part because of the close relationships she formed over the years, and her love of the mountains.

Varsha loved travelling and had the opportunity to see most of the world. One of her favourite hobbies was playing cards with family and friends. She particularly loved cooking, especially for her children and grandchildren.

Varsha Rajnikant Vyas is survived by her husband Rajnikant, by her daughter, Deeti; her son, Amar; daughter-in-law Sarika, son-in-law Bertrand, 3 grandchildren, Siddharth, Rohan and Ravin.

Varsha Rajnikant Vyas is also survived by her 2 sisters, Harsha and Vibhavari and brother Madhusudan; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, and their families.
