Samuel Prabhakar Rao Raya Obituary

Dear ones:


The Bushi-Raya-Mergl families are grateful for the words and expressions of comfort you are pouring into our lives through various channels on the 'Home going' of our dear Dad and Grandpa Sam Prabhakar Raya. He lived a fearless life of almost 83 years epitomizing “For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain” Phil 1:21. He was sick for a week, because of aspiration pneumonia resulted through a routine endoscopy procedure. His home calling was absolutely peaceful!

 

We have a celebration of life for our beloved Dad/Grandpa Sam Prabhakar Raya. Please kindly note the following.
