Ravi Uncle was one of the sweetest people I have ever known and like a father to me. He was always willing to talk to me no matter what, and would patiently take the time to help me. A sense of peace and wisdom surrounded him and I loved to spend time with him before and after class; our conversations always put a smile on my face. He has inspired me in more ways than one, not only in dance but also my academics and personal life; he was an example to me, about being brave and looking on the positive side of situations. Both Teacher and Ravi Uncle have been a great source of strength to me, and I will always love and miss him. May God give teacher and her family the courage to face this difficult time.
