Story

My brother was a wonderful, caring, loving, generous and amazing individual who devoted his life to helping others. He has moved on with a short innings of only 53 years.

From a very young age, after the death of our parents (they were aged only 46 and 47 and both died of heart related conditions 6 weeks apart)when I was only seventeen and my brother was 23, he took on the responsibility to support both me and my younger brother Ajay having only recently been married himself.

You would not be able to find anyone that knew Amar that wouldn't tell you repeatedly how he was always the life the and soul of the party. But that's not all they would say. You would hear many things about Amar.

He was an amazingly un-selfish individual who went out of his way to help just everyone he knew with love, caring, emotional support, advice, listening to even extending and stretching his financial capacity to help family, friends, colleagues and sometimes complete strangers as well as making considerable contributions to charitable causes.

He was just so generous in life, particularly with his time. He never spoke about things he had done to help others either. I only realised some of the amazing things he had done after he passed away hearing stories from many of the hundreds of people that knew him. He gave so much..

Amar has left behind a massive gap in our lives. Not a day goes by where smiles from memories and sadness from missing his presence and I want to raise money in his honour to do something that I know he would be incredibly proud of. 

Many of our family and friends are taking to their bikes to attempt to raise as much money as possible for the BHF so that we can help others from being robbed of amazing individuals like Amar before their time.

The BHF does amazingly great things to help each and everyone of us. The research and funding goes towards the significant progress and advancement in technology and learning and reaping the benefits of those advances to make a difference in helping people from babies to the young to the old and from many walks of life. It's a fantastic cause.

Please dig deep and make a contribution that will allow our loved ones to stay with us for longer and not be taken from us before their time.

Thank you for your support.

Sincerely,

Anil Sharma
