I have had the opportunity to work with Harjinder for a good 9 years at Bracket/ Signant Health. He was a very friendly and a pleasant colleague to work with.
Rewinding the Bracket times, I recollect my vivid memories of the lovely conversations we have had. It was not just work that we spoke about; we chatted about our kids, their education… etc., we will miss you and your warm friendship, Harjinder!!
I am sure you have gone to a better place and pray to the almighty for your soul to Rest In Peace.
Om Shanthi 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I worked with Harjinder for many years, however in the last 2 years I got to work with him as a manager. We worked together on a daily basis and I got to know him as a kind, gentle, unassuming person who spoke fondly of his family. By our conversations, I gathered that he was a loving son and brother, a caring husband, and a devoted father. He never had an unkind word for anyone and was always supportive of his colleagues. We miss you Harjinder. May you rest in peace!
I was lucky enough to work with Harjinder and got a chance to see what a great man he was. I will miss him dearly and wanted to extend my sympathies to you and the family.
Many condolences🙏🏻
I was actually part of a group that interviewed Harjinder. We were very blessed to have him come work for us, and I had no idea when we extended an offer to him that we’d be getting someone with such high character.
Harjinder was always so professional in his interactions with others. He was always very calm, such a genuine person and kind hearted individual. Back when we were in the office, I enjoyed talking hoops with Harjinder in between meetings.
Rest in peace, you had a positive impact that I won’t forget.
He was part of the group that interviewed me when I applied with Bracket. A few years passed he became my Team Lead and had since been working closely together.
He was such a nice Team Lead. He was very calm and very helpful. I remember he asked me a lot of times about the Roche/Genentech Studies.
We will surely miss you Harjinder. Wherever you are now, may your soul rest in peace.
I will always remember Harjinder as a collaborative, kind hearted colleague who always met you with a smile on his face. Our conversations started with small talk where he spoke so highly of his family and it was evident that he so proud of his kids. Harjinder never rushed you away and always took the time to listen. Our prayers go out to the family in this time of need. You’ll be missed Sirji.
He was openhearted, calm and very kind .
My deepest sympathies to you and your family.
May your soul rest in peace 🙏🏻
May your soul rest in peace.
My prayers and deep condolences to your family.
I’m still not able to believe that he is no more. I worked closely with Harjinder and he was such a cool and calm person. He will be greatly missed. I Hope god gives immense strength to his family. May your soul rest in peace Harjinder.
We all love you.
Though I last worked with Harjinder in 2012, he was one of those people that never leave the place they hold in your heart and mind, no matter the passing of time. I was deeply saddened to hear of his untimely death and want to convey my deepest condolences to his family, friends and coworkers as I know Harjinder’s absence will be felt on a daily basis.
I was fortunate enough to get to work with Harjinder for many years. When he walked into a room, he brought with him a sense of kindness and calmness that was always needed for our too frequent last minute meeting or a project escalation where his expertise was needed. It wasn’t just his expertise and broad knowledge that I appreciated, but the way he led his team by example with trust and integrity. He would always take the time to ask about my family and it was a joy to see him speak about his. Harjinder will be missed dearly by the many people that he touched.
My prayers and deep condolences to his family.
Rest In Peace, Harjinder.
Rest In Peace!

I will always cherish the morning walks up 2nd street as he will suddenly appear right next to me at the lights and do our routine morning greetings. The world is missing a good soul now and I know our paths will cross once again.
My condolences to his loving family
He had a way of settling the energy in a room and his smile was contagious, it was not his time to go, rest in peace.
I was blessed to work with Harjinder for 5 years who was my team lead/ manager . He always had a gentle smile on his face no matter what the situation was. In our “one on one”meetings, he understood what kinda of work pressure we had and made sure we never burned out. He is the kind of person who always encouraged and motivated us in every aspect of our life. I have personally learnt a lot from him, being good colleague and above all an AWESOME human being. I couldn’t write this without wetting my eyes. Harjinder, you ll be missed.
Rest In Peace !
