It's been many years since Ram passed away, but I thought of him, his wife and his son today. I lived next door to Julia, Ram and Noah for maybe a year and the memory of their kindness as neighbors has always stuck with me. We really only interacted briefly, but those moments are still with me. I just wanted to let them know that. Wishing Julia and Noah health and happiness.

Just saw this guest book. Ram was my husband. Don't know if, after 12 years since he died, this post will reach anybody. Just wanted to thank those that posted about him. He was a wonderful partner and I was blessed to be by his side for 17 beautiful years. Our son, Noah, moved to Brooklyn NYC and is working with young adults with mental illness and performing hip hop. His focus on compassion and social justice mirrors my lovely husband. I have moved to Portland, OR and teach and produce art. Love to all. Julia.

Julia,
What a shock and profound sadness. You probably don't remember me, but I was friendly with Ram and was his clinical supervisor when he worked at Geriatric Services in SF. I adored him - what a funny, bright, caring, sweet, passionate, compassionate soul. I remember well how excited he was when he met you and fell in love with you. You were designing furniture back then - are you still involved in that work? Unfortunately, I lost touch when I moved to Portland OR in 1991. I just heard from Marie Wren, also from Geriatric Services. My warmest wishes at this time to you and Noah and the rest of your family, Zach

What a loss to the east bay community. What a loss to me and my wife. He was an inspiration to us. We will miss him dearly. My wife Mennen could not help it but broke down in tears when we first heard of his passing. He was the a therapist that had so much impact in our lives. Condolences to his family and friends that he so lovingly talked about all the time.

What a caring and motivating man. I thank God for the blessing of being his student. I have learned so much from him and will continue to share the cross-cultural and societal messages that he taught me with others. Knowledge like his and the unselfish desire to share it are rare. My prayers are with his wife and son as well as all those who are missing and will miss him. May his many lessons and his desire to create and promote social justice for all live on!

Ram, You had integrity. I remember bumping into you when you and Julia took Noah swimming. I thought, "Ram is such a good father, a real family person" You were always especially kind to me, helping me, for example, get units of credit for continuing education.You were kind but not flirtatious. I don't want you to be gone! The world was better because of you. My life was better because of you. With you gone we have to be more hard working and more generous, in your spirit, for justice and account ability. Your life was like a song--each note rare and precious. We were lucky to have heard the music.

What a great loss for this world. I worked with Ram at New Connections. He was always gentle and joyful. An intelligent and patience man, but never prideful. My love and condolences to Julia and Noah.

I always thought of Ram as a wonderful, gentle man, full of humor and joy; a loving father and husband. I saw him as generous and caring. I can't believe he's gone! His community and his friends are blessed to have had him for as long as we did. All my love to Julia and Noah.

I am deeply saddened that Ram has been lost so suddenly. As a former member of the family therapy community of the Bay Area and one who shared similar passions about multiculturalism and social justice, I mourn the passing of a man of vision and integrity, generosity and courage. I send my sympathies to all his family and friends on this great loss.

My deepest condolences to the family. I knew Ram briefly when I joined the staff of Geriatric Services 15 years ago. He was a fine, gentle soul who shined a light of inspiration on everyone who met him.
