In the deepest part of my heart, I would like to offer my most sincere condolences to members of the CSC family, as well as to friends and family members of the deceased.
The Lord, I pray, will grant him the peace that passes all understanding.

In addition, his brother Shamal D’Costa is depicted in the pictorial representation. Please remember him and the rest of his family in your thoughts and prayers as you continue to keep them in your prayers. Our plea is that you kindly comply with this request. His parents, Francis and Conception, were parents who loved their children very much, and he was their right hand. He served as their right hand to the helm. The 22nd of August, 1951 is his birthday, and he was born in Karachi, which is located in Pakistan.
One of his parents was named Francis, and the other was named Conception. The fact that he was the oldest brother meant that he was a consistent source of inspiration and determination for his four younger brothers. A group of individuals consisting of Rosalind D’Cruz, Florinda D’Costa, Maria D’Silva, and Melinda D’Costa, as well as Adrian D’Costa and Melinda D’Costa. At the same time, he was the oldest brother. Because of this, his siblings looked up to him as a role model and thought of him as their adopted parent.
It was in the year 1980 that he relocated to Chicago, and it was in that city that he went on to achieve success as a banker and construct a stunning home with his devoted wife, Shanti. In addition, he is the proud parent of three beautiful children who go by the names Ashley, Brad, and Tyler. He will always be proud of them. To add insult to injury, he is surrounded by a sizable number of nieces and nephews. These children are the one thing that brings him the most happiness and pride. This includes his brothers-in-law, Ashok Pais and Vijay Pais, as well as their respective wives.
