[governance] Funeral Notice

[Sheetal Kumar]

Dear all,
This is devastating news. Imran was a very valued member of our community,
and he will be missed. I can only imagine what his family and loved ones
are going through.

As has been suggested, Bruna and I will put together a message for the
family, on behalf of IGC which we can share with you beforehand. I would
also encourage, as has already been mentioned, that we individually get in
touch with the family to express our condolences.

Best wishes
Sheetal.
