I am dumbfounded. I met Monisha at a random horse race called the steeplechase in Pinehurst NC. I was a bum kid, no confidence... she was the prettiest thing I had ever seen. Some how, she became my "girlfriend" lol. We oddly went to the same middle school... of course it was super brief.. then one day, at a house party near NC State she was there, one of the hosts at that... I was old news of course but she was still an amazing presence. I have the unfortunate gift of having more dead associates/ friends etc but it´s set me up to be a damn good home hospice nurse. Thanks for the memories and for making this guy feel really special if only for a moment! RIP. -Bobby Bell, mom was Harriet Retterer in Cary NC.

I´m very sorry to hear about Nish. She was one of my best girls friends in high school and I have very fond memories of going to lunch with her everyday in her "jelly bean". You will be missed and I send my condolences to her family!
