With great sadness, we regret to inform you that Hitendra Patel (59) passed away on February 21st, 2021, due to complications from cancer. We are planning a funeral and memorial service at Byrd &Flanigan Funeral Service at 288 Hurricane Shoals Road NE, Lawrenceville, GA 30046, on Tuesday February 23rd at 10 am EST. Due to the ongoing pandemic, there is a limitation on the number of mourners, and those present must wear face masks. There will be a live feed on the funeral home's official website (https://www.byrdandflanigan.com), on the home page.

Hitendra was born on October 3rd, 1961 in Ahmedabad, India. He immigrated to United States with his family in 2003. Like many immigrants, he wanted a better life for his family, so he worked hard to put his children through college.

Hitendra was a generous and kind-hearted soul. He treated everyone with the same respect no matter their age or background. He was never hesitant to offer help to those who needed it, even when not asked. He had a glowing smile that would light up the room and provide comfort no matter the situation. We will always remember his jovial manner and how he always maintained an upbeat attitude towards life.

Hitendra was a dedicated family man and strove to provide a great life for his family. He overcame a number of obstacles to create a better life for his family and worked hard to ensure their prosperity. He had a passion for working and staying active and loved to complete projects around the house in his spare time.

Hitendra is survived by his wife Kirti, and his son Parth, and his daughter Manali.

Yours truly,

The Patel Family
