From Julie Silva
Sanjay, I've sat with the news of your death for the past day and a half not knowing what to say and overcome with grief and disbelief. After showing up to work and seeing the pictures and the candle burning, it stuck it deep that you are not coming back. I didn't know what I would say initially, but here's what i've got, buddy.
First I would say thank you to your parents for bringing such a beautiful soul into this world to share with others.
I would then say thank you to you, Sanjay, for sharing your constant smile and enthusiasm for life. Even on my worst days when I was in a foul mood, seeing you and spending a few minutes talking to you was a gift that reset me. Honestly, I don't think there is a person alive that could still feel crappy after seeing your smile and hearing your laugh. I'm going to miss both of those things along with rubbing your bald head.
It's always hard for me to say "Goodbye", especialy when it's for a final time. One day I will accept that you're gone, but I will never be ok with it. Perhaps that's a selfish attitude, but I feel like we all still want and need you here. We wernt done yet.
I hope you take with you all the Love from everyone...I believe it is just a small amount compared to the Love you gave to others. I pray that your last vision was the beauty of where you were surrounded by people who cared about you. I believe everyone will be forever changed by knowing the awesome man that you were, the lessons you taught everyone and just being part of a life of such an incredible soul. I can only hope that your Faith provided you enough strength to leave this Earth content and in Peace.
Wherever you are, Sanjay, please know that I will never forget you, and I will try to be kinder to all that I meet, smile and laugh more in your honor.
Safe journey, Sanjay.
Xoxox.
