Gopal and I go back sixty years when we were both in the M. B. A. class at the University of Chicago. Among our group of friends, Gopal was always very positive, funny and yes, he loved to cook at Hitchcoke Hall, the university residence where he lived. We shared countless meals and visits to Jimmy's for beer on Saturdays evenings. Unfortunately, our paths did not cross for all these years and I am so sad that he is no more. And, I learned of his passing just today. I regret not having kept up my connection with him. Best wishes to Terri and Gopal's children and grandchildren.

I am truly honored to be a part of such an amazing family as that of Gopal and Terri's. When my wife Peggie and I flew out to New Jersey from Wisconsin for Gopal's funeral I was overcome by the tremendous outpouring of support and recognition for Gopal and the entire Rao family--a tribute richly deserved. I first met Gopal in the early 1960's when he was dating my sister Terri, and my respect for him has grown tremendously throughout the years. I will miss him so much but will always treasure his final phone call last month when he and Terri blended their distinctive dialects in singing "Happy Birthday!"
