The only memories I have of Paresh are happy ones where he was laughing or smiling or being silly and make us all laugh. I hope he is in a better place now.

I had the privilege of first getting to know Paresh four years ago when he interned at the company I work for. I am shocked and saddened by this news. The world has lost one of the nicest, funniest, and most talented people I have ever met. I feel lucky to have had a wonderful lunch with him this summer and will forever remember his penchant for joking around and his big smile. My heartfelt condolences to his family. May you find peace and comfort in remembering the wonderful times you shared together.

I will be forever saddened by this tragic and shocking news. As one of my best friends, Paresh was undoubtedly one of the brightest, most capable, logical, and fun individuals I have ever known and will ever know. I would look up to him always and try to emulate his approach to life wherever I could. I must say it was tough doing it as well as he always did.

My heartfelt condolences and thoughts are with the Jains. I can only know a part of the pain you must feel. Paresh was one of my lifelong friends and I can't believe he won't be here with me anymore. I will miss him forever.

I met Paresh almost 8 years ago at school, and talked to him off and on since then. He is one of the few people I can say that about, and he's the only person that I can say that every conversation or exchange we've had has been positive and upbeat.

Paresh was an amazing person, and I think there are hundreds of his friends around the country that would agree.

My sincerest condolences to his family. Whenever he spoke of you he did so with great respect and love. That is something I'll always remember about him.

Paresh, the world lost one of it's best people on Wednesday. You were one of the most talented and funniest people I knew. I've never had more fun with you than I did when we stayed in Vegas together this summer, hitting up subway, the palms, and the ping pang porium at our hotel. I was sure you had a bright future ahead of you and I'm devastated that I can't ever see you again.
