Dec. 16, 1935 ~ Dec. 10, 2020
Marlborough – Bahador “Baha” Javid passed away peacefully Dec. 10, 2020, at the age of 84, in Natick. He died as a result of a long-time illness, but showed his courage in facing life challenges with a smile. Baha came out a hero, stayed strong, and even joked and danced until the end.
Baha was a Program Manager at Raytheon and worked both at the Sudbury and Marlborough plants. He was an avid skier, tennis player and runner. He also enjoyed mentoring others in the Marlborough Middle School to become talented engineers. He cared about the environment and was active in different conservation groups.
Baha met the love of his life, Elisabeth Pawloski, at the University of Minnesota where he got his BS in Electrical Engineering. They were inseparable and loved each other dearly.
He is survived by his wife, Elisabeth; his daughter, Karen and her husband John Ebner, son Sasha Javid and his wife Stephanie Norton, and son Michael Javid; grandchildren Alyssa and Christopher Ebner; seven sisters; one brother; 22 nieces and nephews; many great-nieces and nephews; and loving cousins.
Due to Covid restrictions, Baha will be honored at a private ceremony Friday, Dec. 18, at noon, at Evergreen Cemetery of Marlborough.
