Rajeev and Monica,
I am very sad to hear of Anaya's passing. She was a great kindhearted kid. She was a delight to have in the carpool van for AMASA. In the few years I drove them I got to know and see them grow and mature into great intelligent young adults. May God bless you all while you go thru this most difficult time.
Deepest condolences

Dear Rajeev,
Yesterday afternoon, I came to learn the tragic news about your loving daughter Anaya from your Swapna Didi. Since then I have continuously been in a state of sock and grief and I have not been able to gather enough courage to speak to you. I have been a part of your brilliant family right from the days of your respected father Professor C. B. Tipnis who has been one of my lifetime greatest teachers while you were still a little child (1969-1971). After that you again joined my family at Delhi rather closely during your student days as an undergraduate student at DIT Delhi only to eventually go to Massachussets as a graduate student. All through, you have been a loving sweet person with all great qualities that one can think of. Occasionally I have learnt from you about your sweet daughters Anaya and Aisha. I have seen so many nice photographs of Anaya playing around with Aisha and her other friends. It has always given me a great satisfaction and pleasure to learn about the great qualities that Anaya had. She was a very talented bright girl who excelled not only in her studies but in all other areas including music, games, debates, robotics, tutoring and all other extra-curricular activities only to make her parents and other family members and friends proud of her. She had a brilliant personality and was born to excel and excel only all through. An abrupt end to such a brilliance is a tragic loss not only to you and Monica but to all your extended family and friends and especially to her great teachers who taught her all through. I am deeply lost in my chain of thoughts right from the days when you were only a little child at Gwalior where I used to visit your great academic family so often. I am finding it unbelievable to accept that such a lovely person endowed with all the great qualities has left us while still being only a teenager herself. I pray to God to somehow grant you and to all your loved ones the strength to bear the pains, grief and sorrows.....!!! We are fully with you in this time of grief.....!!!

What a tragic loss... May her soul rest in peace. My deepest condoleances for the family.
I had the honour of spending a week with Anaya during our holiday in New Zealand and she was such a happy, bright, social butterfly.

Anaya and my son, Josh, were classmates at the Eliot. When I learned the news, I remembered what lovely conversations that Monica and I had at the Eliot playground. Over the years, I read about her awards and thought,"This girl is brilliant! Look what she has accomplished!" My sincere condolences to your family.

You were a beautiful Child of God. Among the countless incidents we recall, the one that we remember the most is how you so lovingly took Jojo, our German Shepherd into your home, setup a bed for him, played with him, and then made him feel comfortable - while everybody else wanted him to stay out. You had a kind heart and were planted on earth to bloom in heaven. May you rest in peace, and may your parents have the strength to bear your loss.
With lots of Love,
Anurag, Malvika, Agustya & Vigyan

I am so sorry to hear about Anaya's passing. She and I worked together for a summer in the Girls Who Code program, and I was inspired daily by her intelligence, talent, passion and kindness towards everyone around her. I remember not only being awed by how much she knew, but also being amazed at how willing she was to go out of her way to explain things to me when I did not understand. She was loved by all, and a wonderful leader.
My thoughts are with your family at this difficult time.
August 16, 2017
Sorry for your loss. Being a worker in a home next your house, i feel saddened. Every morning i admired the mother and daughter relationship, as the mum would drive her daughter to Needham High. Its a loss to the neighborhood. She was vibrant and made an impact.

My 3 children and I will miss Anaya. She was a wonderful math tutor to them and just an exceptionally sweet, thoughtful, and warm-hearted young woman. I was awaiting the day she'd become a recognized future leader in a chosen field. She was on her way to even more great things. We express our condolences to her mom Monica, who I've met, and her entire family,and all friends. Your daughter was a gem in our eyes.

Dear Rajeev, Monica, and Aisha,
I'm so sorry to hear about Anaya's untimely passing. She was a smart, kind, and witty person, and I feel very fortunate to have known her during CTY. I remember her amazing music skills from the talent show, and her ability to transform our class into a bright and engaging environment. Seeing her again at Splash and the NCWIT ceremony was always a highlight. Please accept my condolences in this difficult time.
Sincerely,

I met Anaya several years ago at a summer camp, where she lived next to me. We were close during the duration of the camp but drifted apart once it ended. However, she messaged me recently, telling me about how she hoped that we could connect again, and that her cousin was going to attend my school in the fall. She was always very kind and sweet. My condolences to everyone close to her, and I won't forget her.
August 15, 2017
Dear Rajeev, Monica and Aisha,
We are very shocked and saddened to hear about this. We were always very impressed with Anaya and her sharp intellect. We were so happy Srishti got to spend so much time with her during TyE.

I met Anaya only one time, at the Hillary Clinton event in November at UNH, where I am currently a student. She was so kind to me and we had a lot of laughs together, even though we had only met that day.
She recently messaged me on Facebook, and told me that she thought I was a lovely and awesome person, and that we would be great friends. I feel the same way about her, we just clicked!
Maya Angelou said, "people wont remember what you said, people won't remember what you did, but they will always remember how you made them feel." Anaya made me feel like a good friend, even when we had just met. I'll always remember her kindness and her good heart.
Sending condolences and love to her family and friends.
Love, Nola

I am so very sorry for your loss. I taught Anaya at Needham HS. She was brilliant, but more than that, she was curious & passionate. She was a great writer. She was full of energy and passion and enthusiasm. My wife was very impressed with Anaya's business plans and thinking. My wife said, "I'd hire her right now. She's ready." She had a very bright future ahead of her. My most sincere condolences,
