Dr. Acharya was a great teacher to me as an intern at Roswell Park; his wisdom and spirit opened my eyes to the eternal beauty in humanity and for these lessons I will be forever grateful. Love and Prayers....

Dear Harsha,

Molly and I were saddened to learn of the passing of your dear husband Arun. The day we all spent in the French Quarter in New Orleans was one of the highlights of our trip. It is true that good company makes for good times. We will miss him .



Sincerely,

Auntie,



I am so sorry for your loss. I will keep your family in my thoughts and prayers.



I wanted to tell you that every time I saw uncle he would tell me how proud he was of me. It meant the world to me.



I am also one of the many who has been touched by his warm and caring spirit and he will always be in my heart.



With love, Ruma Patel
