An empty heart, an empty home an empty seat. Emptiness is all that is left since you left us. I speak to your photos daily asking for a clue, a sign, an indication that you're still here and count down the days until I can see your face again. I think about your departure and my heart begins to cry and I have to remind myself that you have gone to a much better place, far superior to where we are now and that this is just another one of your life's journeys. You travelled far and wide, it comforts me knowing that heaven was your final destination. I pray that you can see us from your seat up there, I pray that you smile every moment watching us all and knowing that we are doing our best to honour you, your name and the beautiful legacy that you left behind. I miss you every single day and can only wish that you are able to see Sienna grow into the wonderful little girl that you wanted. She's so funny Dad, always keeping us on our toes, she still hasn't learnt how to suck her thumb yet like you tried to teach her and ends up gobbling her hand instead. You'd laugh and would definitely have taught her by now if you were here. You would be so proud of mum, she's been a beacon of strength and is doing her best to honour you and ensure that your love transcends beyond the life and death realm, I am so so blessed to have been born to two souls who were the epitome of true love.. The boys, they miss you, they normally dont say a lot but it's clear as day the hole that you've left is there hanging over all of us. You always taught them to speak up and I'm glad that they have started doing exactly that. Together we will get through this and build our strength until the day that we meet again as you always demonstrated that you have to stay strong through everything in life and give it your best fight. For now I am going to sign off as my heart is hurting, but just know that you are loved more and more with every day that the sun rises and with every evening when the sun sets. Your beautiful soul is immortal and will shine on in our hearts and minds till the end of our day's and beyond. Miss you so much and love you! Sapna ❤️

I had the pleasure of working with Jiwan for a number of years and can honestly say he was a great person to be around. If there was a bright side to a situation he found it. His work ethic and in-depth knowledge of the subjects he lectured about meant that he was considered a subject mater expert. Who could tailor the information being discussed so that no mater the knowledge or experience of the audience they understood and benefited form the time they spent with him. As a colleague I will greatly miss him, as a friend I am sorely missing the chats over a few drinks about travel, the future (our sons are the same age) and his deep love and pride he had in his family. My life is richer for knowing you Jiwan. Rest in peace

Time doesnt stop whether you're happy or sad. I keep looking for signs from you but havent had much. Just the number plates from time to time. I need to know how you are my love. Wishing you a peaceful and pain-free onward heavenly journey

Jiwan you were a real Gentleman and a wonderful man and you will be greatly missed by me and all the people who were lucky enough to know you and whose lives you touched x love always x Rose 🌹🥰

You will always be in our memories mamu . Miss u.

In tribute to a wonderful man, Mr Jiwan Trehan.. A loving husband, doting father and one of the friendliest people I had the pleasure of meeting.. He always had a smile on his face and always spoke the truth. He was giving, thoughtful and extremely generous in thought and hospitality.. I never thought that I would see this day but in the same note, this is Gods’ plan and I pray he is at peace and will always always be with his family and friends in spirit.. Mr T, you grew an amazing family and it’s clear for us all to see - you really were amazing inside and out xxx

Jiwan Maamu was like a Dad to me, my best friend- He was my constant supporter who would call me every single day before sleeping.. We used to talk about everything- President Trump, my Visa, My job, his health, our relatives in India, my girlfriends!.. We both had a dream, he would come and live with me in my house in US, and he would come to my wedding, and we both would drink all night and dance on the song "Saada Maama badda great oh saada maama badda great"-... I miss you every single day Maamu, I wait for your call.. I wish I could talk to you just once more..

Bhaji gone to soon Such a great, fun loving personality. Wont forget our tym in Dubai. ALWAYS in our hearts n prays for ever🙏🏽 Satinder Monica Harnaik Ria Bentley n Diesel x

Jiwan you were not only my brother-in-law, but a big brother I never had, and a protective father figure to me. We always looked up to you and took your words of wisdom in our day to day life; you told us to always enjoy life and all the little things, as one day we would look back and realise how special the small moments really are. You and our Bubbles were, and will always be our role models with the best couple goals ever 💓 You thoroughly enjoyed life and made it look like a beautiful colourful rainbow. We were always inspired by your love of life and experiences and always wanted to follow in your footsteps. You raised two amazing children who also have your jovial sense of humour and are a true reflection of your incredible upbringing and values you have bestowed upon them. I hope we are also able to achieve a wonderful relationship with the girls, which forms into a strong friendship as they become older. You really were the best dad ever. I will miss all your funny WhatsApp forwards and jokes, and will still treasure the photo you sent me of you and Bubbles enjoying a gin and it made you think of me 🙏 I will treasure the day we spent together in Leicester last year whilst we had a small window of opportunity and that small window gave us the biggest ray of sunshine, to be able to see you again and also take the customary selfies, which have become a part of my lifetimes fondest memories. Thank you for teaching me how to take good photos and I will carry the flag for you whenever we have family gatherings. Miss you always, please continue to bless us and guide us all ..... A small snippet from a song which is very close to my heart. I will think of you, mum and dad when I listen to this.... Nagmen hain shikve hain Kisse hain baate hain Baatein bhool jaati hain Yaadein yaad aati hain Yeh yaadein kisi dil-o-jaanam ke Chale jaane ke baad aati hain Yaadein yaadein yaadein From Aarti x

You will be missed chacha..I have always heard stories about you from papa, your childhood ones... Papa has been digging out old pics of you..he might not be able to express but we know how sad he is.. Rest in peace..

Dearest Jija Ji you was a comfort when I lost my brother and now I’ve lost another brother 😢You always welcomed us with you warm infectious smile. Jija Ji you will be sadly missed, loved and always remembered. RIP dearest Jija Ji 🙏💔 Much Love your favourite Sali..Satnam Bindi Anil & Ajay ❤️

Jiwan - you will be greatly missed by so many. You always knew how to make people laugh and you just never stopped smiling. Your energy and enthusiasm for life was contagious and it was a true pleasure getting to spend the time I had with you over the years. You were a thoughtful and selfless man that would always first ask how myself and my family were every time I saw you. You were such a driven, inspiring and hard working man - traits that I see live on in your son each and every day. Our hearts are heavy. We will miss you. Charlie & Sophia xxx

Phuphar ji you were always so kind, gentle, funny, full of love and so easy to talk to! You were a friend to everyone. We love you and will miss you. Forever in our hearts lots of love Tal, Rani, Taran and Mahaan

Bhaji was a family man and loved by so many. I distinctly remember how excited & proud he was when Sapna announced her pregnancy. The moment his little Khugi took her first breath, she just blew him away & stole his heart. Nveen, Aariya and I were extremely blessed to meet Bhaji not too long ago. The moment he spoke about Sienna his whole face lit up. He was so proud and happy that he had taught his little Khugi how to stick out her tongue. I will forever remember his precious smile & how he easily, even during his toughest times, was still able to make the three of us laugh & smile. Our brother was the most courageous, kindest person and his smile alone warmed so many hearts. Praying for him to have the best onward journey & be greeted up there by loved ones who he has dearly missed. Bhaji we really miss you & there will always be a special place in our hearts for our Big Brother. Today we will say goodbye to his body but our relationship, his spirit & our memories will always be with us 🤍 Love you Always Vin, Nveen, Lucy, Lewis & Aariya xox

Truly one in a billion, full of joy and vibrant colours. Always lit up the room with his presence. We are all going to miss you so much. Hope waheguru guides you in your new life, but you will always remain in our hearts. Love Indy Gedhu and Family. 🙏🏼💔🙏🏼

Massar was a man that always laughed and joked, he kept everyone around him entertained. He was very loving and had a special place in his heart for people he really cared for... He will be dearly missed by us. You will be missed and remembered forever RIP 🙏 Aman, Mindie, Haarleen & Aamrat 🙏

We always saw u smiling and talking it was yesterday when u were taken it was today but in our hearts u will always stay, ur voice ur wisdom n love ...miss u always ❤ Love : micky n rimple

I remember when I was really young, I was in the car with phuphar ji, bhua ji, and my mom. I can't remember where we were going but I remember phuphar ji told a joke while he was driving. The joke went as following - 3 women are going to a party and can't decide what to wear. So one lady says, my husband has black hair, I'll wear a black dress. The other says, well my husband has brown hair so I'll wear a brown dress. The third lady says, well my husband is bald, so I guess I'll just come with no clothes on. It made me laugh then, and it makes me laugh every time I remember it now. I've mentally cached that joke since I was like 6 or what ever age I was and it's been my go to joke since. Phuphar Ji was always making us laugh. He was relatable and current too you know. I could speak to him about the world, eduction, politics, and he knew, he understood. It wasnt just mindless chatter between us. He was actually engaged with the world, and that's why I loved seeing him. I knew I could always learn something from him. I remember asking him to teach me some of his tricks from years of experience in being a teacher. He said make them laugh, get them on side, but make sure they understand that they have to put in the work too (the way he put it was, he won't take any prisoners). That stuck with me too as I quite like teaching. Phuphar Ji along with the rest of his family have a very special place in my family's hearts, they always have done since we were children. Just because phuphar ji isn't physically with us any longer doesn't mean that he isn't still with us. His love will always be with us. Love you more than you probably knew phuphar ji. Breaks my god damn heart to write this. 😞❤️

We will miss the happiness and smiles he brought to his Daughter Sapna and his Son in-law Anand. Jiwan uncle was always happy to help his family and friends and he will be forever missed. His blessing hand will always remain on his loving family and his sweet grandaughter. Prayers and thoughts are with you all. Naresh, Mita, Shyam, Rakhi & Craig x

We will miss you so much Jiwan, you was a great person with a big heart. I will miss our telephone conversations, your Saturday trips to the house and our holidays together. Love you always from bhaji & bhabi. ❤️

We will miss you so much phuffar-ji, you was an absolute gentleman with a heart of gold and always had a smile. Love you loads ❤️ from Sunny & Manpreet.

It was really wonderful knowing you Jiwan, thank you for always looking after Alex when we have been busy at work. Lots of love, Jenny & Steven Mak

Papa, the first time I met you was when you came to help install internet at my house and you had changed my teenage life when internet began to boom back in the early 2000s. I was 14 back then and I was so blessed to have known you ever since then. I got to grow up with you and see what a talented and artistic man you were, I thought you were a decorator at one point as you redecorated so much to perfection! You were always such a gentleman to mum and a very loving father to my sister. I won’t forget when you saw me get emotional at Sapna’s wedding and you told me to come over, you always looked out for others. I will miss your soups, especially the ginger soup, I think I was the only one that actually liked it as I’m sure Sapna wasn’t the biggest fan. You were always so generous, remember when we said if we win a million, what we would do and you asked me what I wanted. I said just perfume as that’s all I wanted hehe. I loved how you were always honest with your opinions, I will never forget when you told me that you didn’t like me with blonde hair. Never ever will I go blonde again Pa, you told me the truth and that will stick with me forever. Thank you for being such a wonderful papa to me and always making me feel like I am part of the family, only you called me Alexa and I thought I sounded cool. I will miss you so much and I love you! With great love, Alexa your Chinese 2nd daughter xxx

Once a Legend..... Always a Legend! God we're gonna miss u sooo much my great pal and partner in our DNA company 😂, only you will understand that Phuffarji, goodbye for now but never forgotten.. Tony & Bal ❤️

Foof will always be my favourite photographer! Foof never failed to capture every great moment including some lovely photos of me and my dad which I wouldn't have if it wasn't for him. I will forever be grateful I have them photos all because of you Phuphar Ji. Love you and miss you lots Foof, from Jessi ❤️🧡💛

When we first met Jiwan uncle, it was when Sapna & Anand tied the knot. When they said who gives this bride away, uncle stood up with such pride and love and said I do. It was funny as that’s what the couple say but it said a lot about his personality and character. He was a family man who was friendly, loving and always had a smile on his face. You will be missed dearly. Love Pritz, Bhav & Kian xxx

No words will ever be enough to express what a fab person you were. It was an amazing privilege to be able to call you Phupar Ji (the coolest dude ever!)...you will continue to make us all smile and laugh with all the wonderful memories you have left behind with us (will never forget the christmases and sleep overs lol)...shine bright, sleep tight Puphar Ji. Love and miss you dearly..❤ Riku, Harvey, Avneet & Nimrit xx

Sapna always said I remind her of Jiwan, or Jeeves as I always liked to call him. I hope I can have just as positive a impact on peoples lives as he did, he was funny, fun loving and relaxed (a great recipe for life)! Our love and prayers are with the family Sarju & Sonia Pattani X

The first time me & Sarju met Jiwan uncle was at their home. He was very warm and welcoming, we had good conversation and straight away knew he was a fun person with great charisma. We will always remember him for his big smile! Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. Sonia & Sarju Pattani x

Ever since our kids decided to bring us together I've always know you to be a funny, happy generous chap. We had some great conversations in the past that i will never forget. You will deeply be missed Jiwan Bhai. I still wear the watch you gifted me everyday and I will continue to do so. Love from Ramesh and Saroj Pattani

We have known Jiwan since he and his family moved in next to us some eighteen years ago. We could not have hoped to have better neighbours. Jiwan was always kind and helpful if we needed a favour. We will miss him greatly and our thoughts are with his family at this most sad time. Ray & Sue W will miss him greatly and our thoughts are with his family at this most sad time. Ray & Sue

Thank you for setting up this memorial to Jiwan. We hope that you find it a positive experience developing the site and that it becomes a place of comfort and inspiration for you to visit whenever you want or need to.
