My dear Amrapali! The news was short and shocking. You left us so unexpectedly due to brain stroke! I don't forget my first day at Stanford, I was nervous , you made it joyful, had lunch with me, introduced me to everyone. Your beautiful happy face calmed me down. Remember our yoga class, our zoom coffee routine, long conversation on the way back from Asilomar? I was so happy for you as you just became assistant professor. You are alive through your work, your community service, your publications. But above all, through all the lives you touched with your kindness and generosity. You were a true gem. I wept when you were leaving stanford to Netherlands, your voice is clearly in my head: “Don’t cry Shima, don’t cry”. Rest In Peace my dear
