Dear Gelman Family,
 
One of my first memories of The University of Michigan, before I was even a student there, was meeting Jascha at a party.  I thought to myself, if this is how all the boys are at this school, I'm certainly going to like it here.  I was lucky enough to get to know Jascha as more than just the great looking guy I spotted in a crowd.   Jascha was a truly unique person with an ever present smile and boundless energy.  He was a face I always expected to see on my trips home to Detroit (I now live in California) and in many ways, I still do.
 
I have thought about Jascha and your family often in the past months and am grateful to have a place to express my deepest sympathies and the true regret that I didn't get the chance to know him better.  Please find comfort in knowing that you raised a  remarkable individual, one that made an indelible impression on those fortunate enough to cross his path. 
 
My thoughts and warmest regards are with you all.
