Supporting the family of our much-loved friend and colleague Bhupesh following his sudden and tragic death.

Avondale, Auckland

Bhupesh was a much-loved friend, colleague and member of our JMP Engineering family. More importantly, he was a devoted husband and father to two young sons.

His sudden death in a cycling accident has left all of us deeply shocked and saddened, but most of all it has left his family facing an unimaginable loss.

Bhupesh was cycling home from work along Rosebank Road earlier than usual that evening so he could take his sons to their Kempo class. Tragically, he was struck by a vehicle before he made it home.

Bhupesh meant a great deal to many people. He was kind, generous with his time, and always willing to help others. Those of us who worked alongside him knew not only his ability and dedication, but also his warmth, humour and friendship.

We have created this page for those who would like to show their support for Bhupesh’s family during this incredibly difficult time. Every contribution, large or small, will simply be a way of helping ease some of the practical and financial pressures they face while they grieve.

The support, messages and kindness already shown by friends, colleagues and the wider community mean a great deal.

Bhupesh will be very deeply missed.

WOW - Your messages and generosity mean more than we can say  17 September 2026

When we created this page, we already knew that Bhupesh was a very special person. What we hadn't appreciated was how exceptional he was to so many people beyond the person we knew day to day at JMP.

We have come to realize he was the same person with all of us. Whether you knew Bhupesh through work, friendship, family or the wider community, you're describing the same genuine person we knew. It's rare to be the same person with everyone and it says a lot about who he was.

We are enormously grateful for the generosity. What has moved us most deeply are the comments you have all left and being able to read about the affection, respect and friendship you had for Bhupesh.

Many messages include the words “Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti”—a wish for peace. We wish that peace for Bhupesh, and comfort and peace for his family, friends and everyone now mourning his loss.

Thank you for sharing your memories and your very generous donations.

Met Bhu as a colleague, turned mentor to me, became a friend, true well wisher and elder brother. I'm forever grateful for your kindness, warmth and generous servings of home cooked food you brought along. It's been a privilege to know you and your family. I have very fond memories of the time we spent together and will miss you. You're a true Gentleman, "Bhupesh Bhai". I'd never called you that in person and I regret it. Thank you for everything. May your soul rest in peace and May the Lord give Varsha and the boys strength.
