Me and 5 other classmates were fortunate to be trained by Parab Sir when we were students of architecture. He gave us our very first jobs and was an excellent teacher. He pushed us out into the world and taught us to be self-reliant, do the very best we can and believe in ourselves through our work. His words to us, "Never trust a dimension you did not take" will forever remain enshrined in my memory. It is rare to find a patient and willing practicing Architect to train and teach mere students valuable lessons in the working world and for this alone, his passing is a big loss to the profession. Thank you, Parab sir. The lessons you imparted in Urban Planning and Design to us are priceless and something each of us use even today.
