    The world is missing a beautiful person, and a ray of sunshine, I guess someone else needed her spirit more though.

    I can't believe she is gone, I'm still in shock, I keep thinking about the first day she moved into my neighborhood when we were in fourth or fifth grade... she was so quiet then, but she was the best friend anyone could ever have. I miss her so much, she keep telling me to come visit her, and i never got the chance...it's so weird, that she is really gone...I miss you Sim...

  • I feel so bad when heard the news. i express my condolences to the family members of Gill. May her soul rest in a perfect peace. Persons having a Realistic personality type "dominate" this environment. There are more of them than there are people of other personality types. I am not a lawyer or psychologist but we must consider when modern views collide with ancient tradition.

    As per her parents and brother's statement- Amandeep Brar and Simrit Gill did not had a trouble marriage. Today when I read "Feb. 10, 2008: Simrit Gill's e-mails to her best friends:" Simrit Gill's friends described totally different story and this story really shocked me. I read Simrit Gill's friends statement three times... there are lot of questions comes to my mind. Let we wait Amandeep Brar's statement.................. Ashok Shah, Hong Kong
  • Every body have different views. Let we listen both side of the story. Who knows what happened, argument, fight and physical attack each other. This will come out when Amandeep tells his story in the court. Up to now both side parents did not know any thing untill happened. According to the girl's parents, they just moved out from their house. Had Amandeep and Simrit ever argument or fight in Simrit's parents home? if not how come in short of time it happened. Time will tell. From here, it is great lesson to other parents- tell your kids if you don't like each other, like to divorce, do it and not stay together with arguments.... then it may be too late ............Ranjit Singh, New Delhi
  • Dear sir, after reading this story and below Anju's opinion, I am squared to go to India to marry there because with the recommendation of my parents, I already have selected one. His father is also a senior police officer. Now it looks me that this guy is just like to come here. On this week end, I may sit with my parents and tell them I don't want to travel same boat as poor Simrit Gill. When I see Amandeep Brar' s photo it square me. Now NRI girls must take a bold step to tell their parents that don't force us to marry............. Sukhi, Vancouver
  • Amandeep Brar's Bond hearing is Monday, February 18 in Mecklenburg County Courts- Please help us Please help us get national attention to this as Sim’s killer, Amandeep Brar must not get bail (he is a flight risk). His Bond hearing is on Monday, February 18 in Mecklenburg County Courts. We can not bring back Simrit but we can see Justice is served. If you can help get this message out there please help, JP
  • Simrit Gill, WE CANNOT GET YOU BACK. We pray for you and whole world is with you. Being a mother, I know how difficult is to bear this loss for your parents.

    I request all NRIs parents, if your kids are born here, forget to marry your kids to go to India and marry there. Understand it:
    • Gape of culture. People in India says, they have great culture----Look this result of their culture
    • Secondly, we always say, oh they belong to great khandan, his father was officer and they have lot of money by taking bribery..... if they have money, do they transfer here to help their son or daughter. No. Why we believe this non-sense. We have to pay all for there richness or khandan. Who care.. I don't
    • Third, If you are smart, ONLY look their qualification, NOT THEIR PARENTS AND THEIR KOTHI OR LAND. Still if you like to marry your daughter in India- just look his qualification.
    • Look Amandeep Brar. I don't blame him. He was brought up with the way the officers in India they do with easy money......................................................Anju Malhotra, London, UK
    • AWARENESS AGAINST DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND CRIME

      I spoke with shyrl cherrie from charlotte observer for tomorrow's story. Addie Rohrman from Domestic violence told me that In response to the first domestic violence related homicide of 2008 in Mecklenburg County, the Domestic Violence Advocacy Council invites the public to participate in a march on the square in uptown charlotte.

      The march is intended to broaden the public's awareness that to stop these kind of incidents in future.

      - Thursday February 7
      - 12:15 - 1:00p.m
      - at the square at trade and tryson street charlotte

      please pass this information to all of her friends so they can come and support to raise the voice to get justice to our loved Simrit.


      Jerry thanks for all you help.

      I have started contacting several media sources as you should start getting calls tomorrow Tuesday. Domestic Violence, awareness, and Justice to be served are some question topics they will ask. I found lot of help (contacts) thru NOW (National Organization for Woman). I have submitted to CNN/ Nancy Grace. I will keep copy you as I get responses from them, so you will be ready when they call you. I am off work Tues and Weds and have set aside this time to start work on this for your family. We loved Sim and I want to help, Jerry Cashman

    Yes it same and he just came to usa in august last year and within 6 -7 months he done this to his wife and this way we would like to bring awareness in community so that these kind of things are not happened in community. its lesson for all parents to be aware when dealing with overseas marriages for their kids. this looks like the marriage either he done to come to usa or might related with dowry. so with this one we would like to bring awareness campaign for this kind of incidents don't happened in future. Today their is funeral for that girl in northcaroline where hundreds of people came out on funeral services from all communities to attend this event and support for family. All students are worried and willing to support the family and committed to get highest level of punishment in this case so culprit like this one can't repeat this kind of incident. in this way some one can't loose their friend sister.

    if u need anything else just let me know................Jg..Ontario, Canada
