Jayasankar Appukuttan Nair

In SBI staff college as PO with me .He is standing in the row below me without coat.

He worked with me in SBI in Trivandrum and Chennai. Good officer. I remember his days with me in Bhopal when we joined SBI together.I take my daily walks past Bayview Apartments on Thiruvanmiyur beach.I used to look at the flat and remember he stayed here.I pray for him on the beach.Last I commented on Renovation of Kalakshetra Theatre on his FB page. Ohm Nama Shivayam.

Deepest Condolences. May the Soul Rest in Peace. He was very kind to me and helped identify a career. He,like his illustrious Father was most kind hearted.I respected and continue to respect this great family of warmth and generosity.

I had known Jay from our college days and were together at the SBI for a brief while. Ever since we used to 'smile' at each other through Facebook pages. A thorough gentleman who always took extra care about the sentiments of others, he was a quiet presence. I grieve with the thousands who had known him and felt the shock of suddenly losing him. My sincere prayers with the family at this difficult moment. Om Shanti

Rani Aunty, Chechi, Lakshmi and Rishi are in our thoughts and prayers. Praying for MokshaPrapti for Uncle. Om Shanti

Deeply saddened by this sudden exit, Jay Uncle. All of you have the special ability mean anyone you meet, feel like family. My heart goes out to Auntie, Paayi, Manu, Lachu and Rishi. Much love!

Dearest Jaysankar:

So sad that you went away. We are struggling to accept it.
May your soul rest in peace. You will always remain in our heart, for ever.
More than two decades of memories are flashing thru our mind.
We have no words to pacify Rani and the rest in the family.

Saddened by this sudden loss of a great friend. Such a kind and wonderful human being who was an asset to his community. Will miss him and he will always have a spot in our hearts. Jay was ready with a melodious song to bring joy to his friends any time. Condolences to the family. Praying for his Atma to attain Sadgati and for strength to the family during this difficult time.

Sad to hear about the loss.Heartfelt condolences and prayers

Jay will be missed terribly, yet for many reasons his life needs to be celebrated and memorialized.
Rani had the special privilege to enjoy his love all through her life right from her young age.
Lakshmi, Rishi, and Parvathy had the special privilege of being with him and enjoying his affection, care and guidance all through their life. I am sure Jay was instrumental in the morphing of Lakshmi and Rishi into such powerful musicians
Jay's inordinate passion (may be obsession) and knowledge in music has resulted in creating a culture and prominence for music amongst the Indian diaspora in the Northeast through the different cultural organizations including Pattu Party. This is priceless
Jay was an extremely successful business leader leading and growing a global plant based organization into prominence and great success
Above all, Jay's life principles clearly demonstrated that the purpose of religion is to serve as a platform to connect (not dis-connect) different people and communities, and liberalism is a virtue and not a burden.
He, through his life, showed us the value of genuiness
Jay's focus in life was not leaving something for the people, but leaving something in people the sign of true and genuine Legacy. He will live in OUR hearts

Dearest Jay,
Our friendship was special.
The songs you sang was special.
The family surrounding you is special.
The friends that surround you is special.
I am so fortunate that you made me your friend.
And I will always treasure it.

We are heartbroken , our prayers are for Jay's soul to Rest In Peace and prayers for the entire family to get strength to bear this sudden loss. Jay was in our music group , we enjoyed his melodious singing and enjoyed playing rhythm for him. Our music group will not be the same without Jay. We will miss you. Ohm Shanti

So sorry to hear of your loss, Rani. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and family at this time. May his soul Rest In Peace!

A down to earth warm person. Endeared to all who had the good fortune of meeting him. A super singer. His musical weekends had become a much awaited program. After each show he would pm me for feedback. Gone too soon and too quickly. Thank you Jay uncle for all the memorable moments. Prayers with the family.

Having worked with him for almost 10 years in the late 1900s I never forgot him after that. Though not in touch frequently we were very comfortable with each other on the few occasions. Man of his ward and easy to mingle with. My heartfelt condolences Rani, Parvati and Lakshmi.

Excellent person.A personal loss to me.

Jayasankar was a fine gentleman. I had the opportunity to work with him when Sabinsa supported many GOPIO and Kerala Center programs. He was a Life member of the Global Organization of People of Indian Origin (GOPIO). Organized two Health Summits under GOPIO Health Council with the sponsorship from Sabinsa, which was represented by Jay at these meetings in 2018 and 2019. The Keral Center honored him for his Corporate Leadership in 2019. We will miss him.

Conveying heartfelt condolences to the family and friends from GOPIO. May his rest in peace.
