Veena was happiest when she was with her family. She always loved it when family and friends stopped in for a visit and made sure they had plenty of food and chai. Visitors commented on her bright and ready smile. She was passionate about helping those around her be strong, independent leaders both in the family and in the community. She inspired her children, siblings, and students to thrive. Her mottos were Good, better, best. Never let it rest until your good is better and your better is best.
She took a message from her father: “God helps those who help themselves”
