- - Richard Yellin - - Aroti was a sweet, very genuine soul. I got to know her quite well, while we worked together for over 14 years. During frequent get-togethers, for over 19 years beyond that, I got to know her even better. * * I came to enjoy her company more and more, over time, and I came to be more keenly aware of that which we shared, in terms of positive outlook, comfortable but humble-enough lifestyles, and in regard to love-of-family. * * Aroti was a true spiritual friend to so many of us, and she so appreciated an ongoingly meaningful and joyful group repartee. And it was great watching her partake in that, and it was great watching her enjoy that, and she certainly did !! * * She loved good conversation and she loved to share good news and smiles. She spoke about her husband often, with much love, and she spoke about Sanjay, her son, much, with loads of love. She was much more into realness and helpful, genuine involvement than showiness or " 'achievement'-too-much" "proven-on-paper." * * She gave great advice, as "she said what she meant and meant what she said." And she loved a little recognition and concern shown back. * * We came from original backgrounds that were different, but each with their same teachings of love, spiritual abundance, keeping G-d in our lives, and respect for good, decent people. * * Aroti, I hold you close as I let you go as I keep you close, and I persevere. Thank you for having so "been-there" while you were here !!! * * Much love and a big "G-d Bless" !!!

Growing up in Washington Heights in the same building, Aroti has left a lifelong impression. I will always remember and cherish how strong, determined and focused she was; wanting only the best for her family and those around her. Her feistiness and love for her family and life will live on in those she touched.

I was blessed to have Aroti aunty in my life. Not only was she a kind compassionate person, she also had a good sense of humor. I remember the time I stayed with her and chinni uncle, our evenings were filled with a lot of their old childhood memories and so much laughter. I was certainly very lucky to have had her in my life.

Growing up in India, Aroti baideu to me was a much older cousin who lived in a fascinating place called New York. Despite the distance and the years which separated us, she was always very affectionate and friendly towards me.. To her I Ialways remained Rimu. I loved her joie de vi·vre and I can still hear the girlish laughter she would break into when recounting one of her many stories. Though I will miss visiting her on my trips to NYC now, I find solace in that she lived a full and long life. Rest in peace, Aroti baideu.

Loving, warm and always smiling. That's how I remember my aunt, Aroti Masi. Although our meetings were few and far between, they are etched in my memory... Her visits to us Shimla and our visits to her flat in Calcutta...the few days I spent at her cheerful home in New York and her warm and generous hospitality... Aroti Masi we shall miss you always. May your soul rest in peace!

I’m very grateful that I got the chance to meet Aroti and share her home during my time in New York City. From the beginning, she welcomed me kindly and warmly, and became like family to me. She always had a smile and a kind word, and she made me feel safe and truly welcome. Even after I moved away, I kept her in my thoughts and visited her whenever I was back in the city. She didn’t forget me either and always welcomed me again with the same warmth. I’m very thankful that I got to see her again last month. It makes me sad to realize that she’s gone. Rest in peace, dear Aroti. You left a mark on the lives of those around you, and you will be remembered with love.

Wow! So growing up in the same building where Aroti lived... she was and always will be a part of my life foundation and more so another influence of mine to be the best person I can be, as well as doing good things for people in general. Aroti.. you will be missed so much. Please give Pasha some love for me. He was the first shih-tzu in my life and I will always cherish coming to your apartment to play with him. Thank you for building me. Love you always

Aroti was the eldest of us siblings and was our father’s favourite child. By nature, she was a very friendly person, accepting people for what they were. She was always focussed on what she wanted in life and drew her strength from her faith in God, the power of prayers and her unstinting love for her son Sanjay. May her soul rest in peace.

My heart goes out to the Jayachandran family during this difficult time. Aroti was a warm, loving and compassionate person. I was introduced to her through my dear brother-in-law, Sanjay. I had the pleasure of visiting her several times in her NY apartment and her home in Calcutta, India. And I always enjoyed our conversations and her welcoming spirit. She has been an inspiration to her family and community and will always be remembered through so many beautiful memories. It was a privilege to have known her. “There are no goodbyes for us; wherever you are, you will always be in [our] hearts.” Gandhi

I remember when Aroti came to visit Sanjay and Shiela some time back in Pasadena. She had come with her very fun sister whom I had met in India perhaps a year or two earlier. They came over to visit me as well and it was so lovely to have them over. Sanjay said she always asked about me whenever he visited New York and I always loved to hear that. It felt very sweet to be remembered. Rest well Aroti knowing that you leave behind a wonderful son and daughter-in-law Sanjay and Shiela who cherish you dearly. I wish you well on your new journey. Namaste from Raksha

Aroti/Aro Aunty was a beacon of strength, warmth, and independence in our family. Her kindness touched every heart, and the beautiful memories we created together will forever remain close to us. Her laughter, her kindness, and her unwavering love are etched deeply into our lives. She never failed to keep us in her fervent prayers and her presence never failed to be comforting. She showed us the beauty of living life with dignity, resilience, and compassion. Though our hearts ache from her absence, we celebrate the incredible legacy she leaves behind. We will always hold our dearest Aroti/Aro Aunty close in our hearts and will honor the wonderful presence she was to us all. Aroti/Aro Aunty’s spirit lives on in each of us.
