I had the pleasure of working with Dr. G.C
He was a very special person, he will be always in our hearts.

Jenny and kids,
I knew your dad when we were in high school. Even though he took me to prom, it was obvious right away that night (to everyone) that he was in love with your mom and that they should be together.
I was saddened when I heard about his death. May his joyful spirit continue to light your paths.

Jenny, Dahlia, and Charlie,

Some of my fondest memories of Gautham are back in the day at UT-Austin. Those road trips that we took in the middle of the day or night to meet him while we were at school.....Or driving to San Antonio while he was in Dental School...How about the Beavis and Butthead scenarios!
Dahlia and Charlie, you were your dad's pride and joy....I remember when both of you were born and how giddy your dad would get when he would see you or hold you.

Love you,
Aunt Monica

Dear Jenny, Dahlia, & Charlie,

I have very very fond memories of Gau(tham). He can get real serious at times but really was mostly a funny, friendly kind hearted person. I remember Gau from HBU and I was in med school in SA when he was at the dental school. Even before he started school he would have been the person I would want to have my family see as a dentist. Gau was as honest as they come and did the right thing. He made a great role model.
Jenny- I dont know if you remember me or not. I was at first mainly Gopi's friend but after he left HBU really started to know and appreciate Gau. You are obviously as strong as Gau said you were.
Dahlia and Charlie- your dad was awesome. I can see him rolling his eyes in circles to make you all laugh. I dont remember if your mom liked that though.

All the Best,
Ajay Gupta

Dear Jenny, Dahlia, & Charlie,

Wanted to let you know I think of Gautham often& wonder how you are all getting along. I never met you all, but pray that you all are finding some peace & times of joy in your life without your husband/father. All of your posts to your husband/father were very touching. I hope they make you feel that he is close-enjoying your exploits, laughing & crying with you all! I went to Dental School with Gauth-he will ALWAYS have a very special place in my heart.

I got my hair tangled in a circle brush and then Mommy cut it off even though I know that I could have taken it out myself. SPRINGS!!!!!! They look terrible even though she said they don't look that bad. Grr. Now I'm going to wait like six months to have it go down to my nose.

Gautham was an amazingly special person. We've never known anyone quite like him and I'm sure we never will. He was a kid at heart, which made him such a joy to be around. He always kept us laughing. He made dental school and beyond a fun experience. Gautham kept in very good contact with me and remained a very close friend ever since dental school. We enjoyed bouncing dental problems and questions off of each other. And of course, yapping about our families. I'm so glad that I had the opportunity to spend alittle time with Gautham, Jenny, Dahlia, and Charlie last year. We have lost a very special friend and dentist. We will cherish all the memories we hold of him. He will be greatly missed.

Lots of love,

Mark, Stacy, Dylan, and Riley Tracy

To The Chandrahasan family,

Our memories are of Gou who left his native shores when he was barely a year old to return only once when he was about seven; and thereafter updated time and again with photos and letters by his parents.

When we realise that he is no more, there is great sadness and a pang, at the thought, that, we will never see him again.

My memory races back to 1976 when I was in the X th Std.I used to tease him "Bucky Dent" - for which he hated me,but later went on to become a dentist with a gleaning set of teeth & a charming smile. It was monsoon here , when he came & at our grandparents place "Jayapuram" in Pyyanore-Kerala, it used to be flooded & tiny fishes from the fields found its way there. Gou would catch them & put them in a bottle & when they died, he would dig a small grave for them and after prayers laid them to rest.He had a knack for coining nicknames, immitating ,talking,and sing songs with substituted words. A certain lady used to visit us and she had the habit of saying "po ttea, po ttea"( in Malayalam language it means "shall I leave") to each & everyone & Gou would go on chanting that exactly like her. We still have audio cassettes of his talks, songs, etc. Memories of Gou are very few but they shall be cherished always.

All of us are actors on this planets stage & each one has to play his part and depart, maybe to another one.

Goutham Buddha said "Grieve not for the dead"- for he has attained eternal peace.

To The Family of Dr. G.C. I offer my deepest sympathy. Dr. G.C. was the first dentist to ever make me feel comfortable and unafraid to come to a dentist. He was caring, funny and calming to me when I sat in the chair. He became a friend and he will truly be missed, I told all my family about this wonderful dentist who talks to his patients and doesn't hurt, and they also became his patients. He had a very beautiful spirit and I will be praying for each and everyone of you.

I'm so saddened over the news of Gautham. Hearing of the cancer came as a sudden shock for me and just as my family and I were daily pleading before God to help Gautham get better, we learn of his passing. Our hope for him was dashed rather suddenly. It just doesn't make sense, but we must trust that a sovereign God has things under control. What else can we do?

I am really thankful for having had the chance to meet Gautham years ago in Austin, TX even if my real purpose was to meet only Jenny. He treated me, a literal stranger, with love and respect. He was a rare person indeed, very down-to-earth and kind as well as very funny. I can still remember parts of our conversations from so many years ago.

DEEPEST CONDOLENCES TO JENNY, DAHLIA, LITTLE CHARLIE, AND FAMILY MEMBERS.

Dr. G. C. was the most gentle and caring Dentist with a wonderful sense of humor all wrapped in one.

I was fortunate to be able to work at his office and temporarily serve Dr. G. C.'s patients for a few months after he was diagnosed until a new Associate came on board at Olympic Dental.

Jenny.....not a day went by without any patients praised what a wonderful Dentist G. C. is and how much they truly miss seeing him at the office.....especially his interesting jokes, big smile and hilarious giggles. Being at the office each day during those months, I sensed that there was alot of love, laughs and good times between Dr. G.C., the staff and his special patients.

It has been a great honor to meet an incredible Friend and Colleague.

One young patient has mentioned...Dr. C. is an AWESOME DENTIST!!! I agree totally.

All of us that are fortunate to have met Gautham Chandrahasan will miss him dearly.

Jenny, Dahlia, Charlie and the entire family members....Thank You So Much for taking special care of our Friend, Colleague, and AWESOME DENTIST during those months when he needed your love and strength to carry on. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Jenny, Dahlia, and Charlie,

Although I have never met you, I wanted to let you know you are in my thoughts and prayers. Gautham was a very special person and a very dear friend. He had a talent for making people forget whatever stresses they were going through and make them smile. Even though he was going through the same stress and requirements in dental school, he was always there to cheer everybody else up. Dahlia and Charlie, I know he had to be crazy over you--he always loved everyone's kids. His legacy will live on through you. Please remember that he would not want you to grieve, but to think of the wonderful times together.

To Dr. G.C.'s family,

There are certain people we meet in life that change our lives in a way we never forget. To me and I'm sure to others, Dr. G.C. was one of those people. I first met Dr. G.C. as a patient in his office. I'll never forget all those times I sat in the dental chair laughing while I was getting dental treatment, then I would have to stop because I had to be still. Of course he often stopped and made sure I was doing okay. I was very impressed with him because he took the time to explain what my dental condition was and what he could do. He wanted me to understand my situation. He didn't only take interest in my dental health but also in a personal level. I was later fortunate to be able to work with him at the office. He gave me the opportunity to work in the dental field with out any experience. Even though it was difficult in the beggining, Dr. G.C. and Mrs. Edith had patience with me and thanks to them I've learned a lot. When I would finally get the hang of things, he would give me a pat on the back and say,"Way to go!" It was always fun coming to work because he always managed to do something funny and make us laugh, like trying to add an "o" at the end of words to make them sound like he was speaking spanish. Even when there were busy day he managed to find something humorous. I was able to know Dr. G.C. not only as a dentist but as a friend. He has taught me and I'm sure he has also taught others to live life to the fullest and never have any regrets. He showed us what was important-friends,family and helping others. He was a great boss and friend and I will miss him. Please know that my thoughts and prayers continue to be with you.

We will greatly miss Dr. GC! We took our children to him first when they were young and he was GREAT with them. His laugh (I called it a giggle) and smile were infectious! His friendliness and sense of humor set us all at ease. We have NEVER met a dentist like him. We are not surprised that all of those who have signed this guest book felt the same way. It was an honor to know him. We will miss him!! My prayers and sympathies go out his family. He loved you so much!

Dear Jenny, Dahlia & Charlie,

You have constantly been in our thoughts in prayers since we first learned of G.C.'s fight with lung cancer. I know it has been an extremely difficult road in your life. G.C. was such a special guy. We will allways remember his infectious smile and tender caring ways. I have not met very many people in my life like him. He was such a warm, gentle, caring person. He was a genuinely kind person. He will truly be missed. May you find all the peace,love and strength you need to get through the days, weeks and months ahead.

All our love to each of you,

Andy, Cathy, Rachel, Andrew, Bailey, & A.J.

To the Chandrahasan family:

It is with heavy heart I am writing this. Although, me and my husband met Dr. GC only a couple of years ago it feels like we have known him for years. It did not take long to figure out he was one-of-a-kind. He was always so pleasant and friendly during every visit. We both remember laughing the entire time we were in the chair. Everytime we were in to see Dr. GC we would come home and talk about how great he is and how much fun we would have with him and the staff. I think this is an amazing thing to say about going to your dentist and is a testament to the type of person he really was. It was also very apparent that he loved his wife and children very much. He beamed when he talked about his family. We will always remember Dr. GC and the wonderful, loving, humorous, generous, caring man he was. May the memories you all cherish(I know there are many)give you strength at this sad time. We offer our sincerest sympathy and condolences. May God bless you and your family.

Jenny, Gautham was one of those few people who added so much to every life he touched. His soul will always be a part of all of us. The first time I met the two of you was when Gregg proposed to Michelle. I couldn't imagine why that man was getting out of his car with a welcome mat, roses and videocamera. Arlene and I thought he was bringing an early housewarming present. What a guy. He was bigger than life. Dahlia and Charlie, to you he was Daddy but when you are older and are able to understand all the tributes written to him you will know just how many of us loved him too. Jerry and Barbara Martin

I will miss a great man. Dr. GC was the warmest person I have ever met. His smile and laughter was infectious. I never liked going to the dentist until I met him. He always made me feel relaxed and comfortable, as if I were a part of his family. I'm sure all in heaven are laughing and smiling with him there.

To the Chandrahasan family,

I feel like I knew Dr. G.C. for a very long time, yet we just met a year and a half ago. Everything said in this guestbook is all very true. As soon as you walked into his office, he made you feel like you were his closest friend or even part of his family. It's a hard thing to say good bye, and even harder to let go. I am saddened to see such a wonderful, generous, humorous, loving man go on to be with the Lord. My thoughts, wishes and prayers are with you. May God keep you, for He is faithful.

Your husband was one of those very rare people that had such a special way of touching hearts. I don’t think he ever met a stranger, and if he did I am sure they never knew it by the kindness he always showed. I will always remember his smile and gentle manner, and the way his face would light up when asked about his children. I was always touched by how deeply he loved his family, and how proud he was of his beautiful children. I will never forget when I first walked into his brand new office still having the finishing touches added, the first thing he hung on his walls were not diplomas or fancy art work from some known artist, but beautiful paintings from his little girl. He was so proud of them and want everyone that came to his office to see the beautiful art from his beautiful little artist. He loved you all so very much.

I pray that you and your family will draw strength from knowing how much he was loved and what wonderful difference he made in this world in his short journey through. I am blessed for having the honor of knowing him even if it was only for a moment.

Dr. GC, I miss will miss you.

With much love and Sympathy,

Dear Jenny, Dahlia and Charlie,

There are no words to describe the character, personality and charm exemplified by your husband, and father, Dr. G.C. Dr. G.C. made each one of his patients feel as though they were his special friend the minute after sitting in his chair. I've never met a person in the dental profession that had a heart as big as his was. Not only was he a man of impeccable character, but he also demonstrated that same uniqueness in his professional skill as a dentist. Jenny, I walked in your same shoes 12 years ago with three children, one of whom was an infant/toddler at that time. Through this period of loss that you are experiencing I want you to be assured that God is faithful and will never abandon or forsake you. I am very glad that I had the opportunity to cross paths with Dr. G.C. and I will always relish his momory in my heart.

Arlene & Elliott Ruben

February 18, 2005

Jenny:

No one can truly know the hurt you feel, but please know that there are so many of us that are grieving in our own way. Life isn't always fair, and this loss is a reminder to all of us that every day is precious. As we get older, we are more aware of this every day.

We'll never understand why such a young, wonderful person was taken from us, but I guess God had a plan for G.C. now, rather than later. We can only be consoled that he no longer suffers and is at peace. We are so proud to know that Gautham always referred to us as "Mom & Dad". We loved him as if he were our "3rd" son. The pain will never go away, but do believe that time

WILL make it more bearable. I also suspect that the support you & G.C. have received from people like Gregg & James & Raj and others, through these last many, difficult months has been important, and I'm sure they will continue to be there for you, Dahlia and Charlie.

The support of family and friends will be very important to you for the immediate future. You've been Gautham's "rock" through these very difficult times, but please know that there is not one of us that knew and loved G.C. that wouldn't be there for you. Don't be hestitant in asking.

Take care Jenny and simply look at your beautiful children every day to realize how much you still have in life.

Dear Jenny, I am sorry that I never met you or the children, but I wanted you to know what a great man your husband was. He & I became especially close during the Dental Boards. His humor & infectious laugh helped me through some difficult times in my life. Even though it has been quite a few years since I have contacted Gautham, I wanted you to know how much he meant to me. He will be greatly missed by many. I pray God helps you through this difficult time.

Gautham will be sadly missed by his parents, siblings, wife, children and friends. Some of us were fortunate enough to have known him because he was rare person who shone like a beacon with his warmth, honesty, and sincerity. He had personally helped me through a major surgery which I underwent sometime ago. He helped so many people in their lives as a friend as well as a dentist. He was a highly ethical dental practitioner who did the very best for his patients. Gautham was a loving and devoted husband to Jen as well as loving father to Dahlia and Charlie. Words alone cannot describe our sorrow and we will continue to pray for Jen and children. We will be there for them in the present and future time of need. We are praying for Gautham's soul to rest in peace in heaven.

Love and Prayers

Jenny,Dahlia, and Charlie, I Know that there are no words that can take the pain your are felling at this time. Dr. GC was not just my boss but a true friend . He believed in me. My spirit was broken when I came from my previous employer, but from the first day we met, Dr. GC made me feel good about myself. For the past 6 years, I had the privilege to work with him side by side. I got to experience how special Dr. GC was with all his patients. He made each one feel important. Never did he put any one down. His smile and gentleness made all who came in feel at home. At times Maricela would have to come back and check to see if we were getting any work done , because most of the time we were laughing so hard that she had to go see what was so funny. He had a gift of Love for all and did not mind sharing. I will miss him, but I count my blessings, because he left a little bit of himself in me and I will never let him die in my heart. I love you and your family always. If you ever need a friend just let me Know

Although I didn't know Dr. G.C. as well as many of those who have signed the Guest Book, I have to say that he was the most caring and gentle person I have ever met. For the first time ever, I actually enjoyed going to a dentist's office. I feel very blessed to have known Dr. G.C. in the short time that I did. I will never forget him and his smile and the laughter that we shared during my dental appointments. The angels are definitely smiling now that Dr. G.C. is among them.

Jenny, Dahlia, and Charlie,

Dr. C. was a man that touch my life in so many ways. I saw the Fruit's of the spirit being demonstrated in his life everytime I saw him. As Dr.C. gave us what God had placed in him you began to see the Gifts that goes along with the Fruit's that caused him to be the person he was.

Jenny, Dahlia, and Charlie I never meet you in person, but because of who your husband and father was, we have met in more ways than you could imagine.

I was very close to Dr.C. He was my dentist, but yet he was so real and touchable until he became a Man that I admired.

When Dr. C. had to leave the clinic for treatment, I left. I wanted no one to work on me but Dr. C. Some may say that's selfish, but I don't. I wanted only Dr. C. to complete what he had started.

This hurt me in hearing that Dr.C. is no longer with us. It only means that God has another place that is better for my friend and dentist.

Jenny, Dahlia, and Charlie I wish you peace in your time of bereavement of your loved one. "May the peace of the lord go with you and his family."

His most admired friend,

It has been my honor to have known Dr. GC. This unique man has touched so many people with his caring, gentle manor. He is one of the most genuine men I have ever known. We will certainly miss his infectious smile, crazy laugh and his insight to every day life.

His own life was cut way to short. The only comfort we who knew him have, is that his suffering is over and that God had some special job for him to do that God knew only Dr. GC could handle!

He leaves a beautiful family and a world of friends. Thanks Dr. GC for the memories!

I remember the first time he came to my home for a pool party with Jeff and his friends and Gautham ate so many cookies! I was so honored that he called me "Mom"--mostly because he just couldn't call me Lynda and Mrs. Weigang seemed a bit formal once he was grown up. He is missed but Heaven is a better place these days with him there.

With love and prayers,

Lynda Weigang, "Mom", Mrs. Weigang

I AM NOT THERE ~ Hopi Indian Prayer

Do not stand at my grave and weep;

I am not there. I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow.

I am the diamond glints on snow.

I am the sunlight on ripened grain.

I am the gentle autumn's rain.

When you awaken in the morning's hush,

I am the wift uplifting rush

of quiet birds in circled flight.

I am the soft stars that shine at night.

Do not stand at my grave and cry;

I am not there, I did not die.

The passing of Gautham creates a sincere sadness in my heart. He was a rare find as a colleague and the epitome of the word "friend". I will be bolstered with all of the the wonderful memories we shared through dental school and beyond. Our friendship never wavered even though we were often separated by many miles. He was always quick with a smile and could make anyone laugh at the drop of a hat. Even as jovial as he was, one of his most distinguishing characteristics was his sincerity. Jenny, Dhalia, and Charlie, our prayers are with you and know your husband/father was a man you could be very proud of.

Mrs Jenny, Dahlia and Charles, I offer our condolences to you. Dr GC was a wonderful person. He helped me tremendously with my fear of dentists even at my mature age. I feel a great sorrow along with you. He is now with the Angels just like him. We will miss his hugs and kind words. God Bless you all.

Jenny,

First, Doug came from dental school telling us about a very special friend he had met named, Gautham. Gradually he became a special friend and great dentist for many in our family. He will be missed by all. Our family continues to pray for you and the children.
