Not sure what to say?

Gopi was my best friend. We studied together in junior college in India. His mom used to give us both delicious food while we were studying together. But destinies in life took us in different paths. We were in contact on phone on and off because life here is very busy and takes lot out of you. One day I called him and his wife answered the phone and I asked for Gopi unaware of all what happened. Then his wife said Didnt you hear the news on TV??? I am not much of a TV guy to be honest. But...

I was Dr. Podila's student at Ocimum Bio Solutions at Hyderabad. He was offering a Post Graduate Diploma Course in Bioinformatics with affliation with UAH. He was a really nice man and he was one of my inspiration to pursue my PhD in US. I am so sad to know what happened to him after 5 years. I was just checking my certificates and thought to do a google search and realized what had happened. I so sorry to here this incident. (Sandeep J Joseph, Atlanta, GA

Dear Vani,
I heard and read the news in News papers in Andhra about the tragic incidence and death of Dr. Gopi and just shocked and could not believe thic thing can happen. We are contemporaries at Andhra and in 2007 he had been to our Sardar Patel university to deliver a lecture and had a great time remembering and recollecting the things. Eventhough we donot keep in touch regularly I have no words to express for this loss. May Lords blessings with you and gives strength to come out of...
