BR+A Colleagues at dinner on June 7, 2022

Dear Geeta and Revati,
Arjun was a wonderful man, one of my father's best friends in this world.  I am so glad I got to see him last May.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you both.
Deepest condolences,
Aimee (Bard) Cohen and family 

Dear Arjun
Dear Arjun,
You left us so suddenly , my friend. Who will I be able to call or receive calls  from for no reason at all and talk on general life issues at length. Our get togethers over a cup of tea or dinner will be  forever be a part of my memory. You had such a different sense of humor and style
of thinking.
 Everybody knows you are a unique success story in our community thru sheer hard work and imagination and intelligence 
Arjun, I know fully well you achieved a lot and suffered equally a lot. But thru it you kept a positive attitude in life.
May Geeta and Revati have the strength to be able to handle their ultimate loss.
I am blessed to shared so many discussions and memories over dinners and tea in the last few decades.

So saddened to hear of Arjun's passing. Arjun was always kind and patient, even as an electrical engineer dealing with and encouraging one of those mechanical guys-in particular.  
 
Grateful to you, Arjun, for being one of the three pillars of BR+A and nurturing dozens and dozens of now-better engineers. 

Professional life aside, Arjun, your beautiful family was your biggest joy, it was always clear.  Farewell. 

My deepest condolences to the Rao family far and wide and to all else who loved him. 

My heartfelt condolences.  So many lives he affected for the better with the work he has done, including my own.  Many thanks, rest in peace.


All of us here at Highland Tank mourn the passing of Arjun Rao and unite in honoring the exemplary life of a great engineer. Please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss.
Sincerely,
Gregory G. Aymong
Vice President

I wish to express my heartfelt sadness and condolence to Arjun’s Family especially Geeda and Revati.
Arjun had a distinct way of endearing people with his smile, warm greeting, and intelligence. 
He was the embodiment of the American Dream expressed through his personal and professional achievements.
Arjun was a brilliant engineer mentoring others with design knowledge.  
The memories seem so long ago but, the four and a half decades are vivid and beautiful. God Bless

My Boss, my Mentor, my Partner, my Friend; you will be missed

My Boss, my Mentor, my Partner, my Friend. You will be missed!

Condolences to the family.  Arjun served as the Electrical Engineer representative on the Board of Registration of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors when I first joined in the 2000's.  His wisdom and his kindness was always on display to myself and fellow board members. His service to the Commonwealth will be remembered.

Condolences for the family of my old friend. Arjun and I spent many years together professionally and more important personally as a friend. He will be missed by me as well as others. May God rest his soul.
Joel Raffa
