Jay Narayan Kulkarni

I am just learning of Jay´s passing and am so so sorry to hear we´ve lost such a kind and gentle soul. I remember him as being so respectful and focused on doing the right thing. The world was better with him in it.

Dr. Kulkarni and Family, I am so very sorry for this loss. My heart hurts for you all.

Jay was an amazing young man whose smile alone could lift the room. I will keep many great memories of Jay in my heart. Including, being able to be Jay's teacher at UMS (6th Grade History) and his band's fabulous rendition of "Smoke On the Water" during the UMS Talent Show. Rest In Peace my friend. Thoughts and prayers to the Kulkarni family.

With such a pure and beautiful soul, Jay will be in our hearts forever. Thank you for being a friend. This world will miss you like crazy, but your legacy will carry on. Sending so much love to Jay´s family.

A visionary who is gone too soon. Our deepest condolences to an incredible family who have lost a more incredible innocent young man. Our hearts are broken therefore we will seek peace in keeping his beloved spirit alive. The Barrys

Jay was such an amazing person and genuinely cared about others. We went to Urbana High School together and we had been a part of the Mini-THON fundraiser. He was such a big part of the efforts and his heart was full of compassion. Whenever I would see him he always had a smile on his face and was full of warmth. I am saddened by his sudden passing and my condolences go out to his family. May Jay rest in peace.

Jay was such a wonderful, confident young man. I will miss his positive vibe.

Jay was a kind, sweet, and talented member of the UHS marching band. He helped, in multiple ways, with the annual Winter Wonderland event. I will miss his energy and his beautiful smile. May he rest in peace. Deepest sympathy to Ryan, Renuka, Arun, and Deven.

Jay was one of the kindest and happiest people I've ever known, and he will be greatly missed. My deepest sympathies go out to your family.
