Percy Kavarana

With profound sadness, we announce the sudden passing of Percy Kavarana, who left us on April 24, 2025 at the age of 69. A loving father, dedicated husband, and cherished friend, Percy’s legacy will live on through his unwavering work ethic, immeasurable devotion to his family, and eternal pursuit of integrity and fairness. Percy leaves behind his loving wife of 38 years, Imroze, daughter, Zarah, sister, Shernaz Mancherjee, and a community of dear friends and colleagues who valued his kind heart, straightforwardness, and cheeky humor. The youngest child of Amy and Rustom Kavarana, Percy was born on December 7, 1955 in Mumbai, India. Mischievous yet timid in his younger years, he ambitiously came to the United States at the age of 20 to pursue his MBA, living the remainder of his life in Westchester County, New York. As a proud father and husband, Percy’s genuine warmth, care, and concern offered an overflowing source of love and support. His outwardly reserved demeanor often gave way to an unassuming playful side, as revealed via clever pranks, wry jokes, and good, lighthearted fun. He worked tirelessly to build a rock-solid foundation for his family, carrying them through great times of stress with strength and grace, and making immeasurable sacrifices in order to ensure their happiness. With over 35 years in the banking industry, Percy’s vast knowledge, whip-smart instincts, and precise economic analyses not only proved invaluable to his clients, but also his friends and family who often sought his guidance on sensitive financial matters. Percy’s work ethic was unparalleled, never so much as taking a day off, with the goal of providing security for his family and someday enjoying a comfortable, well-earned retirement. During his career, Percy exemplified that success doesn’t come without perseverance, but it is attainable with hard work, determination, and the right mindset. Percy found joy in life's simplest pleasures, whether it be heartily singing to Tom Jones from his rocking chair on the front porch, savoring a cold Coke (no ice), or just sharing quiet moments and heartfelt conversations with his beloved wife and daughter. In honor of the beautiful life he so fully lived, a funeral and memorial service will be held on May 3, 2025 at 3:00 p.m. at: Dwyer & Michael’s Funeral Home, 90 North Broadway, Tarrytown, NY 10591.
