The only memories I have of Paresh are happy ones where he was laughing or smiling or being silly and make us all laugh. I hope he is in a better place now.

I had the privilege of first getting to know Paresh four years ago when he interned at the company I work for. I am shocked and saddened by this news. The world has lost one of the nicest, funniest, and most talented people I have ever met. I feel lucky to have had a wonderful lunch with him this summer and will forever remember his penchant for joking around and his big smile. My heartfelt condolences to his family. May you find peace and comfort in remembering the wonderful times you shared...

I met Paresh almost 8 years ago at school, and talked to him off and on since then. He is one of the few people I can say that about, and he's the only person that I can say that every conversation or exchange we've had has been positive and upbeat.
