Anita Kapoor Obituary

Anita Kapoor OBITUARY

Anita Kapoor, 78, passed away peacefully on November 4, 2026, in Chesapeake, Virginia, surrounded by her family.

Born in 1948 in Ludhiana, Punjab, India, Anita grew up in a loving home, where she developed a lifelong love of dance, singing, and the sitar. She married Ramesh Kapoor in 1974. The couple made their first home in Bhilai, moved to the United States in 1980 and Hampton Roads in 1990.

Anita’s open heart and unconditional love were the foundation of her family. She spent her final year celebrating: dancing at graduations and birthdays, laughing with Ramesh and her sons’ families in Sedona, and cruising with her husband and friends. Just weeks before her passing, she held her newest granddaughter.

She will be remembered for her warmth, her generosity, and her laugh, arms crossed and whole body shaking.

She is survived by her husband of 52 years, Ramesh; her sons, Saurabh (wife Corey) and Rahul (wife Molly); and her grandchildren, Riya, Aman, Asha, and Annika.
