In Loving Memory of Jitendra L. Patel
St. Cloud, FL – It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Jitendra Lalitkumar Patel on May 18, 2025, at the age of 80. Jitendra was born on October 7, 1944 in Ahmedabad, India to Lalitkumar and Urmila Patel.
Throughout his years, Jitendra touched many lives with his integrity and compassion. Whether offering guidance or simply sharing his presence, he left an indelible mark on those around him. Along with his wife, he was a devout member of his Hindu faith and an active member of that community in NJ, OH, and FL.
Jitendra was predeceased by his mother, sister, father, brother, and mother-in-law.
Jitendra is survived by his beloved wife of 55 years, Kalpana Patel, his daughter, Payal (Greg) Millies, his son, Kinjal (Summer) Patel, his grandchildren, Alexis (Enos), Tejas, Ayden, Juliana and Milana, along with numerous nephews, nieces, cousins and extended family members. His family was the heart of his life, and he embraced each moment with warmth, wisdom, and kindness. His memory will be honored, his lessons will be carried forward, and his absence will be deeply felt by those who loved him.
Rest in peace, Jitendra/Jitu/Dad/dadaji/grandpa/uncle/friend. Your light will shine on in the hearts of those who love you.
