Our beloved, spirited, witty, cheeky, loving, charming and bright, Jayesh was born on 21st October 1958 in Nairobi, Kenya.
Son of Late Girdherlal Shah and Late Priyamvada Shah, he moved to London in 1969, with his mother and 2 siblings to join their father. Jayesh's father passed away when he was just 18, and a few years later in 1978 he married Ila in Rajkot India, and his son Ricky was born in 1980.
He lived a full life until his peaceful passing on Sunday 5th May 2024 at his home, surrounded by his loved ones.
Jayesh was a life long fan of all sports, especially his beloved Man City! He also loved music, namely Elvis and Motown and a few classic old Indian love songs. He enjoyed good food, playing cards and couldn't help but be the heart and soul of any social occasion.
We will miss him, his laugh, and his affection for all. A true legend.
In memory of Jayeshbhai, may his soul rest in peace.
Dear Ela masi, Ricky bhai and Jo bhabhi. We are all so sorry to hear about Jayesh uncles passing. We remember his joyful personality and his love for footy! Lots of love Smita, Vinod, Dimple, Andy, Harshal & Janice.
