Obituary of Divakar Raju Gangana

A devoted father. A loyal husband. A humble man. Dedicated to his craft of cooking and acknowledged as an inspiration to the community. A hardworking mentor who assisted many in reaching shared success. Always believed and practiced that being a good person is the greatest accomplishment one can achieve in life, before wealth or success. He was the first Canadian ever to receive the North American Senior Dining Associations 2020 Dining Executive of the Year Award and was nominated in the top 50 for the 2020 Canadian Immigrant Award. Leaving behind his wife Susan, his daughter Kaitlyn, his son Ethan and all of his family, friends and loved ones. He will be truly missed and has left behind a legacy. Due to COVID-19 we are unable to have regular funeral service. The cremation is being held on Feb 23 at 10am EST, please keep him in your thoughts. We will be having a celebration of life in the coming months and will keep everyone posted. Our heartfelt thanks to the Medical Team at Humber River Hospital (Wilson Ave) whose dedication and caregiving afforded us immeasurable solace that no stone was left unturned in his treatment.
