Jai Nagarkatti

Not good news!! I really shocked and surprised. I express my deepest sympathies to Mrs. Susan and family.
Please to accept my condolence and sympathy for the death of this great charismatic character. His death, certainly for his family and colleagues particularly Si-Al is difficult, but what he gets is the will of God. He will be always admired most scholars and researchers. No doubt his absence will be felt for years.
The only remedy is patience.

With my best...

Susan, I was so saddened and surprised by the loss of your Jai -- I have such fond memories of visiting you both on behalf of Texas A&M-Commerce. I stayed in touch with him on occasion, just a couple of months ago, after I moved here to Oregon. Jai was a truly amazing man and such an incredible role model for many, many chemistry students. Please accept my warm condolences to you and your family.

We are much saddened to come across the announcement of the death of Dr. Jai Nagarkatti on Sigma’s website. It came to us as rather abrupt, as we have not heard of Dr. Jai Nagarkatti having bad health, and he was only around 63. We very much admire Dr Jai Nagarkatti’s shining performances in his career in the Sigma-Aldrich Group of companies. Having been one of Sigma’s approved suppliers for almost 20 years, we Yick-Vic share your feelings of loss of an eminent director in the giant family....

My deepest synmpathies to the Susan and all the family who suffered a great loss of such a wonderful person. Jai was graceful and down to earth man who rose to the position of CEO of Sigma-Aldrich through hard work and his love for chemistry. I had the opportunity to talk to Jai and he was a compasisionate man. I will always miss the loss of a great man.

My deepest sympathies to Ms. Susan and family. Though i knew him for a short time Dr. Nagarkatti was a very helpful person. From his fellowship i got an opportunity to continue achieve my masters degree in chemistry. thank you Dr. Nagarkatti .My heartfelt condolences to the family, may your soul rest in peace.

Susan, Pat and I were shocked and saddened to hear about Jai. I enjoyed getting to know Jai through the Missouri Botanical Garden board and thoroughly enjoyed our relationship. Ironically, I was scheduled to join Jai at SM for lunch last week and had to reschedule. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Nick and Pat Reding.

This was very sad news. I will pray for his family and close ones.

To Susan and Jai's family. My thoughts and prayers are with you, your daughter and Jai's family at this sudden and unexpected loss. I worked with Jai in various roles over most of his tenure at Sigma Aldrich. He was innovative, extremely loyal and an honorable man. I will miss him.
