Please accept my sympathies for your loss - truly a loss to us all. From all accounts, Mr. Chopra was very brave and generous for his dedication to what he believed in: truth, health, and the service of others. We have all benefitted from his tireless work. He will continue to serve as an inspiration to courageously do the right thing. His was a life well lived.
