Not sure what to say?

Dr Nanda was a gifted professor and a delightful person. I am so glad that I came to know him when I was Dean and he taught Math after his retirement from full time teaching. My condolences to his family.

R.K. it was so nice to learn of all of your Father's accomplishments. We always loved seeing you both walking down the street together as well. Sending our sincerest sympathies and prayers to your family at this difficult time.

Jag uncle I would affectionately call him. Remember our gossip sessions with a drink and our endless jokes n conversation. He will be very fondly missed.

What a lovely obituary and a wonderful photo of your dad. He was such a delight. Sending our most sincere condolences.

So sorry to hear this. My late husband Carlos and I played bridge with Jack and Sneh for many years. When we started playing duplicate I was intimidated by Jack---and soon learned to just ignore his bidding and just enjoy the game.

We are saddened to hear of your loss. Our heartfelt condolences to your family, wishing you all comfort and peace.

Rettu, I wanted you to know that my heart is heavy for you. I am so glad that I was able to meet him on my visit to Alabama. Even in that short time I was able to see how precious your relationship was and how hard it is to say goodbye to someone so dear to you. I know that all of the wonderful things he taught you will live on in you.

Rettu, Ranjeev, and the rest of the family, my sympathy to all of you. He touched so many lives-- through all of his teaching at EIU, all of the years of contract bridge, and in so many other ways.
