Janak Madhok Obituary (1937 - 2026) - New Bedford, Massachusetts

With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Janak Rani Madhok, a powerful beacon of light and love in our lives. Born on May 12, 1937, in Shahjahanpur, Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, India, she left this world on May 01, 2026. Janak, a name that resonated with kindness and strength, will forever echo in the hearts of those who knew her. Janak was an exceptional woman who left an indelible mark in the world. As Mahatma Gandhi once said, "The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others." This quote perfectly encapsulates Janak's life. She devoted her professional life to the NHS London, UK, from where she retired in 2002, but her true vocation was being a loving mother. Her dedication to her son, Anil Madhok, mirrored the love she received from her own parents, Raj and Rani Dilawri, who preceded her in death. In England, where she spent the last five years of her life, Janak's spirit and strength left an unforgettable impression on her community. She was a woman of incredible resilience, possessing a heart full of love and a soul radiating warmth. To know Janak was to experience a love that was profound and unconditional. Her legacy will continue to live on, not only in the memories of those who loved her but also in the many lives she touched with her kindness. "She will be greatly missed" is an understatement. As we remember Janak, we take solace in the words of Rabindranath Tagore, "Death is not extinguishing the light; it is only putting out the lamp because the dawn has come." Janak's dawn has arrived, and she now shines brighter than ever in the hearts of those who loved her. We invite you to share your cherished memories and upload photos of Janak to the memorial page. Your tributes will form a comforting quilt of love, reminding us all of the beautiful life that Janak lived.
