Raj was always so welcoming and kind in our on-line communities. He always helped anyone who needed it. I will miss our great conversations, and most of all, his presence.
May he Rest In Peace.

Raj has been a beloved patron of me and my wife's music for the past five years. We have received the news today of Raj's passing with great shock and sadness, and we would like to share our condolences with his family and friends. While our relationship with Raj was always distanced by the internet, his warmth, kindness, and enthusiasm always shone through and was infectious in such a wonderful way. It was abundantly clear that Raj took great pride and joy in helping others succeed. The world needs more people like Raj. He will be dearly missed.

Raj had one of the biggest hearts I have ever known. His kindness knows no bounds. Thank you for helping create a community and to be the heart and foundation of that community. For the family of Raj. Thank you for letting us in.

To the family and all the loved ones of Raj.
I am a retired Christian Lutheran pastor and Raj and I had the opportunity to DM and pray together on many occasions.
When we prayed together, I felt like we were the closest of brothers.
There were times where we butted heads pretty hard over this point or another. To be expected. Raj amazed me with his diligence, knowledge, and generosity!
At this time, my heart is broken in a profound way I cannot really put into words.
I wish all of you deep comfort and I want you to know that I had the opportunity work closely with Raj in support of Pianist Miri.
As we worked together for several goals, it was an exciting and mutually educational time. I will never forget the smile he gave me and brotherly hug we shared at Disneyland when we met.
So from this point on when I pray to the God who loves Raj and whom he loved and followed in return with all his heart, I will know that Raj is in His fatherly arms, and sees his Savior Jesus face-to-face!
I love you Brother!
Now "No Frontiers!"
Further up and further in!

I got to know Raj through our love of music and our shared favorite pianist. I've never met him personally, but I've been lucky enough to occasionally exchange opinions or ideas with him in chat and private messages. For many years I knew him as the kindest, responsible, very intelligent and sympathetic person. He was always ready to help, prompt, joke and support any topic. I always noticed how honestly and responsibly he handled his duties on the streams and how much he liked the music. Thanks to his cheerfulness, sociability and kindness, he is known and will be remembered in many places around the world. My deepest condolences to the family and strength to survive the loss of a loved one. It was a great honor for me to know and communicate with him. Thank you Raj, we have always understood and respected each other. I shake your hand tightly. Goodbye, but I will remember you, you have remained in my heart.

I don´t know what I did to deserve a friend like Raj. For the past 5 years, God loaned me an angel to remind me I´m loved beyond measure. Rest well, my dear Raj - until we meet again in Heaven.

We rarely agreed on anything, and that's exactly why our conversations were so enjoyable and memorable. Raj never let me get away with lazy thinking and I never gave him an inch either. In a world where so many people just nod along, he was always ready to engage, to push back, to make me defend my ideas. I'll miss the debates, the back-and-forths, the respect, and most importantly, the love that lived underneath all that disagreement. He made me sharper, and made life more interesting. I'll be sure to have some counterarguments formed and ready when we meet again, my friend.

My prayers are with Raj's family and friends during this difficult time. I had the privilege of being acquainted with Raj last December because of music streaming. During the brief time that was shared enjoying the music that we love, I was touched by his kindness and warmth and most impressed by his knowledge of music from all genres. He has left a lasting impression on many and will be sorely missed. May he rest in peace.

I've never personally met Raj, it was through his life and activity on Discord/Twitch, what an immensely ki9nd and intelligent man he was. He always had a kind word for every one. He was polite, he was witty and very intelligent. We shared a few personal messages where he would open up with me and I could revel in his honesty and intelligence on so many topics. He will be greatly missed

My condolences to Raj's family and friends. I met Raj during the pandemic. He was a nice man. He was kind. He was always willing to help and encourage me to learn new things and pursue my music. I wanted my nephew to meet him and possibly mentor him on the field of I.T. and coding but sadly my nephew had passed away before getting the chance. Raj, I will miss our weekly hangouts on game nights and music stream nights on Twitch. Raj had good taste in music. I will miss our political banter. I was looking forward to discussing the new things I had discovered stemming from the suggestions he gave me. Raj was a human being a family would be proud of. Raj's presence will surely be missed.
