Reena Bhardwaj Obituary

Reena was born in Stockton on February 20, 1976, and left us far too soon on June 27, 2025. Her absence is deeply felt by all who loved her. She was preceded in death by her father, Hari Krishan Bhardwaj. She is survived by her mother, Rose; her brother, Suman; her sister, Seema Donahoe; her brother-in-law, Tim; and her beloved niece and nephew, Priya and Leo.
Reena had a kind, gentle spirit and a deep sense of fairness. She believed in compassion, treating people with dignity, and standing up for what was right. She may not have been the loudest voice in the room, but her convictions ran deep-and you always knew where she stood. Fiercely loyal, she showed up for the people she loved without question or hesitation. She found joy in life's simple pleasures: traveling, snowmobiling, quick getaways, music, long conversations over coffee or dinner with those she held dear, and quiet moments in nature.
She had a soft spot for animals and adored her two parakeets. Reena never met an animal she didn't instantly fall in love with.
In her final months, Reena and her mother leaned on each other as they grieved the loss of her father in February. Though it was a time of profound sorrow, it was also filled with tenderness and connection-a quiet testament to the strength and love shared between mother and daughter.
Those who truly knew Reena will remember her warmth, her steady heart, her fierce loyalty, and her quiet grace.
