Tearful Farewell to Govind

Today is one of the saddest days for us at AdventNet and at vtiger. Govind, a dear friend and colleague of ours, died in a car accident near Chennai, India; he was 29. The accident happened just 2 days after he got married. He leaves behind his wife Sunitha, his parents, two sisters and grand parents. Our heart-felt condolences to them.

In his short life, Govind shone as an outstanding software engineer, with amazing leadership skills. He was versatile, able to move across technologies and domains with ease. We were truly fortunate to have known him, and to have worked with him. We will sorely miss his can-do spirit and his infectious optimism.

It is a tragic reminder for all of us to practice driving safety. Govind was driving long distance, late at night, when he was very tired, after several days of poor sleep and the hard work and excitement of the wedding. A momentary lapse in concentration proved so deadly. A life with so much promise was cruelly snatched from us.

Govind, may you rest in peace. We will miss you, dear friend.
