Not sure what to say?

I am so sad to hear that Seth is gone. He made an indelible impression on me with his brilliance, his humor, and above all, his kindness. He is missed and loved. I am so sorry for your loss, dear family and survivors of Seth. xoxoxo

Seth was my graphics professor at MIT in 1996. One time I opened up to him about how hard it was being a woman in a major that was 89% men. He listened thoughtfully, and all of these years I never forgot his fatherly kindness.

I wasn't in touch with Seth in recent years, but Seth was my friend, housemate, and a fellow physics major when I was at Wesleyan in the early 1980s. I am very saddened to hear that he died. I remember him warmly as a great guy - funny and smart.

I am so sorry to hear about Seth's passing. He lived across a parking lot from me in college; I always remember his warmth, humor and thoughtful advice. My heart goes out to his family, friends and colleagues. This is a terrible loss.

Our heartfelt condolences to Rachel, Julia, Sophia. Lots of love, Leslie and Bob

I am so very sorry to hear the news. I knew Seth from Family Opera, where he was a cheerful face. My condolences to all of you. Susan Mango.

I'm so sorry about Seth. I only knew him through Ultimate Frisbee, but I will miss him.

I work at MIT assisting students and staff who have disabilities. Seth involved our team in the class he taught on Assistive Technologies a few years back and we have been participating annually. He was a great collaborator and was so good at bringing students, teachers, practitioners and consumers together. He will be so greatly missed. Sending deepest condolences to his family. You are all in my thoughts.

Oh, Joan and Sam; our hearts are breaking for upi both. We just learned of this today
and of course, you know our condolences go out to you.
All our love, Maureen and Bill
