“Those we love don’t go away, they walk beside us every day.”
With hearts full of sorrow, we share the unexpected passing of Vijayan Bakthavachalu on May 22, 2025, at the age of 45. Surrounded by the love of his family in Marvin, North Carolina, Vijay left this earthly life far too soon, returning to the eternal embrace of the Divine.
Born in Chennai, India, Vijay was a man of quiet strength, deep love, and unwavering devotion. He earned his Bachelor’s degree in Electronics and Communications and went on to build a successful career as a Software Engineer. Yet, his true legacy lives not in titles or accomplishments, but in the way he lived—with compassion, humility, and a heart open to all.
To his wife and son, he was the center of their world. A loving husband and a devoted father, Vijay dedicated his life to their happiness, guiding his son with pride, joy, and boundless support. He was deeply rooted in his family, his community, and his faith, finding joy in life’s simple blessings—whether playing tennis and cricket or simply being present with those he loved.
Vijay’s spirit was one of light and laughter, and his sudden departure has left a deep void. But we take comfort in knowing that his soul now rests in peace, and that his love surrounds his family still, in unseen and eternal ways.
In this time of profound grief, we ask for your prayers, love, and support. The financial strain of this unexpected loss adds to the emotional weight his family now bears. Your contributions will help ease the burden of funeral costs, medical expenses, and other immediate needs, allowing his loved ones the space to grieve, heal, and honor his memory.
May we come together in compassion, and may Vijay’s spirit continue to inspire us all to live with love, purpose, and faith.
