I never felt anxious around Kavi. While some might advise to exercise caution, Kavi would encourage you to go full steam ahead. He was kind, fun to be around, and generous with drinks. I always remember him grinning. His grin was welcoming and could fill a room.

His laugh was so majestic that I can still hear it loud and clear. Kavi and I spent seemingly endless hours working together at the Daily, so we had to temper our giggling but also tried to make each other laugh constantly. I knew I was successful if he had to get up from his computer and take a lap — it was a huge victory. I hold his poop jokes in highest esteem, as he was one of the few who truly understood this art form.
