Gowtham... I'm still in shock and in complete disbelief over your passing. I remember so clearly how much your presence meant during our childhood. You’d come over with your grandma and spend weekends at our place. Life wasn't always easy, yet you managed to persevere in a way that was truly inspiring. We were so lucky to ring in the New Year with you—to reminisce about our childhood, the bickering, and all the laughter we shared. You will be so dearly missed. Heaven has gained another incredible soul. May you find eternal happiness with your mom and grandparents. Rest easy, Gowtham. We’ll miss you so much.
