I remember the first time I turned on our street to move in. I was about 5 years old and the first person I saw was Roshan and he waved to me with the huge amazing smile he had and we have become friends ever since. Me Colin and Roshan always fought/joked about whose street it really was. I would say it's my street then Colin and Roshan would both say no it's my street. Roshan it's your street bud. Love and miss you. Rest in Peace.

Yassi joon, I haven't seen you for many years but through our mom's, I have kept up with your family news. I had never imagined that I would communicate with you at a time like this. Every day I pray that G-d gives you strength and peace. Hope to talk to you soon. Send my regards to your mom, Laleh joon, and Cyrus.

Dear Cyrus & Yassaman,

God looked around His garden and found an empty space
He then looked down up on the earth and saw your tired face
He put His arms around you and
lifted you to rest
God's garden must be beautiful
He only takes the best.
I am sorry for your loss,

I was a classmate of Roshan's from elementary through high school. Though I only spoke to him a few times in passing, I was always stricken by how gentle a person he seemed. Gentle, quiet, and happy. I remember his face with warmth.
My deepest condolences.

Roshan was one of the few people on this earth that could make everybody smile. I think about his laugh every day and it continues to make me smile. I hope it does the same for everyone else who knew him. My sympathy and prayers go out to the Rahbari family. May he rest in peace for all eternity.
September 28, 2010
I'm so glad that I was so close with you, I saw you everyday and I will never forget all the amazing times we all had together as a family. I think about you from the moment I wake up until the moment I fall asleep. You come up in my daily conversations. I love telling stories about how unique and "down" you were. I love you, rest in peace.

Please make contributions in lieu of sending flowers.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Rahbari,
We have never met, still my heart aches for you. This was such a senseless tragedy. My heart aches for your son because his life here on earth was cut so short. And my heart aches for all of the young people in his life who must go on trying to make sense of their grief and their enormous loss. I want you to know that there are people in our Almaden community who, although they do not know you, keep you their prayers and heart. Please know that my prayers for your comfort and healing will continue for a long time to come. I am deeply sorry that your son was taken from you so tragically. God bless and keep you close always. With heartfelt condolences, Judy

Dear Rahbari family,
I hope revisiting beautiful memories with Roshan and your love for him give you strength and courage to go through this painful time.
A poem by Mary Elizabeth Frye:
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you wake in the morning hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.
Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
(Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there, I did not die!)

I did not know Roshan very well but the few times in passing I saw him he was always smiling and very sweet to everyone. I regret not having the chance to become more familiar with someone so great.

It hurts from the bottom of my heart thinking that just a couple weeks ago you were at SJSU visiting me. You were a good friend, but better yet a real friend.

Everything about this has been so surreal, I never thought I'd lose you like this. It's my biggest regret falling out of touch with you during the summer..I really did take our friendship for granted and that's what makes the loss harder to deal with. You always told me you could count on me but I feel like I really let you down and nothing can shake that feeling. You deserved none of this, you were always just looking to have a laugh and a good time and you always wanted everyone around you to have the same. When I see your name in my phone I can't believe that I can't call you anymore. Seems like just the other day we were kicking it in your car, chain-smoking cigarettes and philosophizing about life. Now I'm mourning the loss of a loved one taken from me. But I'll stay strong for you bro because you would do the same for me. I love you to death and I'll see you on the other side. You'll forever remain with me, Rest in Paradise Roshan.

Roshan was one of my closest friends and companions. I can't stop thinking about him; I still hear his voice and the sound of him laughing. He especially enjoyed and supported me in my music, more so than even my own family. Everyone Roshan has ever known has been deeply affected by this. The name Roshan in farci means "lit up," and if Roshan was anything it was that. You rarely saw him without a smile. I just don't understand how the universe could have allowed such a tragedy. Life will never be the same for us, the true friends of Roshan.

Dear Mr and Mrs Rahbari,
It is with great sorrow I write this. As a good friend to my son AJ over the years I had the opportunity to see Roshan grow into the fine young man he so quickly became. Always a smile, a warm heart, helpful, confident, a great sense of humor and honorable friend....such a bright light. I cannot even imagine your pain. My thoughts, prayers and love go out to you and your family.
Rest in peace Roshan. You will be forever remembered in our hearts.

It's Kathy, Monica, and Tara! We miss you more than you could ever imagine. Each and every time we bring you up, we talk about your unforgettable smile, that brought great energy to any situation. You were a true character that everyone loved having around. Its amazing how you lived your life to the fullest with no regrets. You always saw the good in people and never criticized a single person. You got along with everyone, and that is one of the many reasons why we love and respect you. Roshan, you are truly one of a kind. Someone we should all strive to be like in one way or another. Always in our hearts forever we love you ROSHI!
