CHAKRAVARTY, Alpana
CHAKRAVARTY Alpana, aged 54, passed away peacefully on December 30, 2016, at Credit Valley Hospital, Mississauga, Ontario after a 5 year long battle with cancer. She is survived by her husband Satindra Chakrabarti, daughter Gayatri (Deepa) Chakravarty, and many extended family members in Kolkata, India.
She will be remembered as a compassionate individual who always put the needs of those around her before her own, even while suffering. She will be greatly missed by friends and family. As per Alpana’s wishes, there was no funeral service and cremation had taken place on January 2nd, 2017, with her immediate family in attendance.
this is a great loss for me and for my family also that we lost our most respected boudi. we never met such a person who was so generous, simple, affectionate, respectable. to me and to my family she was an icon. though we only met once in our life time but it was a wonderful memory. we always remember this most respectable lady who was so affectionate and so close to my family that we always think that we lost our family member. our guardian and the most affectionate person who could really think for my family.
myself and my family will always remember her and we never forget her.
Dear family and friends of Alpana Chakravarty,
We are volunteers in the community and we would like to express our deepest sympathies for the loss of Alpana.
Death is an enemy that no one wishes to experience but please find comfort in knowing that this is not what our creator intended for us. We want to live, and we want to enjoy life with those we love. It is only natural that we yearn to see our dead loved ones again.
The Bible teaches that most people who have died will be resurrected. Jesus promised that “those in the memorial tombs will…come out”. In harmony with God’s original purpose, those resurrected as humans will have the opportunity to live on a paradise earth. (Luke 23: 43) This promised future includes life for obedient humans. The Bible says: The righteous themselves will possess the earth, and they will reside forever upon it.” –Psalms 37:29
Other scripture regarding this lovely promise includes: Job 14:14, 15; Luke 7:11-17; and Acts 24:15
