Chandra Kintala was a man of learning and insight and possessed extraordinary clarity of mind. His prodigious intellect was rivaled only by his kindness and humanity. His death is a loss to the U.S. technical community and to the nation, for teachers such as Chandra are badly needed.

I was deeply shocked to hear today. A great loss for his family. I worked in his department at Bell Labs as a summer student, and later he was on my Ph.D. committee. I remember him as a kind, down to earth and very accomplished person. A role model.

My deepest condolences to you all. I knew Chandra when we were both teaching assistants at Penn State. I was new in the country and he graciously helped me out on several occasions.

Dear Bharati and family,

I happened to google Chandra to find out what he is up to since I last saw you in 2006. I am shocked to discover your loss, please accept my condolences.

Chandra and I shared many happy experiences during graduate school at Penn State. We also kept in touch through the AT&T Bell Labs years. I remain with AT&T.

I will miss the opportunity to share past and present experiences with him.

Dear Bharathi and family,

I am very sorry to hear the sad news. Since I came back from India in 2000 and moved to Boston, I kept in touch with him by phone or by email. I have so many good memories from LA.

Dear Bharati,

I was shocked and deeply saddened to hear the news of sudden demise of my former boss and a great leader, Chandra. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and family in this moment of deep grief.
I can never forget the days he spent with us at Bangalore, always encouraging and egging us to perform better. This is a great loss to me personally, having lost a mentor and a coach in Chandra. And to the research community in general for having lost a true visionary and a great believer in the human achievements.
May his soul rest in peace.

Dear Bharathi and family - I am very sorry to hear the news and we have been very close family friends and yet the distances in where we are living makes it difficult to be there in person as I got the news just now. However, our deepest sympathies to all and we pray god to give peace to the soul of the deceased and to the family. It is really a sad occasion for all of us and particularly to you all. Chandra was a great person and has accomplished a lot to the society and he will be missed by us very much.
