“There are no words that can fully capture the weight of this loss, yet there are also no words needed to describe the depth of the mark he left on all of us. He was more than a colleague and a mentor, he was a presence that made every challenge more manageable, and every success more meaningful. His guidance was a gift. He will never be forgotten because he is still here in all of us. With deepest sympathy and enduring gratitude.”
