🕯 When I went to Toronto for my orientation last year, my first impression of Vlad was that he seemed to be a good developer and was very sincere in helping me learn and offering me assistance. Working with him in the squad, my first impressions were found true and I also found him to be kind, very positive and an excellent sense of humor. He always offered to help on projects to help me get up to speed. I really can’t picture him in my mind without seeing a smile on his face.

I have no words to express the sadness in my heart over these shocking news. Vlad was so incredibly eager to learn and was never satisfied with simple answers, always looking for true reasons why things worked the way they did and dedicated to all of his projects and activities, be that work or play. My deepest sympathies to Vlad's family and friends. Be strong.

🕯 Vlad, it’s hard to express in words how I felt when I first heard of your passing, and how I have felt since. You brought so much joy and happiness to all around you, and it will never be forgotten. Although we would often go weeks or even months without seeing each other, your presence was never anything but pleasant. I’m so grateful to have been able to share memories with you going all the way back to high school (Grade 11 physics would have been much harder to get through without you there). I’m also proud to have shared a birthday with you. Every May 28th, one of my first thoughts would always be “How can I tease Vlad this year, about being born after me?” (even though you were clearly born before I was). I imagine birthdays will be much more bittersweet from now on… Although you have left us way too soon, you will always remain in our hearts. Miss you, buddy.

🕯 It took me a few days to realize what has happened. I still hope that it's a bad joke and Vlad will be in the office tomorrow.
I was the one that technically hired Vlad to join the AV family. During the interview I saw a guy that has so much passion to learn that I made my decision despite the lack of experience. His smile was so adorable. Vlad has been proving my decision every single day.
Some say that time cures everything, but not in this case. So many plans, hopes and dreams just have vanished. His parents should be proud for raising such a son.

Although I've had five years to reflect, there are still no words to express how truly devastating and unexpected losing Vlad was. Vlad was a truly exceptional person in every way; his kindness knew no boundaries and his love no limits. He always approached life with so much positivity and passion, always striving to expand his horizons, excel at everything he did and to help everyone he knew in any and every way possible. Vlad loved to learn and to teach, always happy to share his knowledge and wisdom especially when it came to championing an active healthy lifestyle and helping people improve their lives in any form. He had a beautiful inquisitive mind, always full of interesting random facts, ideas and adorable jokes. Having spoken with him everyday since we met, I can honestly say that one of his most endearing traits was how passionately he always cared... about all of the people around him, about the planet and sustainability, about the future and all of his dreams and aspirations. He was so ambitious and hard working, and simultaneously extremely family-oriented. He was an incredible son and brother and couldn't wait to have kids. Having played soccer all of his life, one of his biggest dreams was coaching his future kids soccer team. It was a topic that came up quite often as we planned our future together. Although our plans were tragically shattered, I couldn't be more grateful to have been so lucky and blessed to have had Vlad in my life and to have been loved by him. Grateful for every single minute we had together, for everything he and our relationship taught me and how much having him, his love and support, in my life has shaped the person I am today. As I carry Vlad in my heart and mind forever, the only comfort there is, is in knowing that he truly lived a wonderful life, filled with happiness, love and lots of incredible moments and memories. He loved his family so much and genuinely appreciated and enjoyed his time with his friends and colleagues. He always made the most of every day and tried to inspire others to do the same. Knowing him, Vlad would have wanted to be celebrated rather than mourned so may his memory always live on through everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him and his life continue to be celebrated by each of us. עליו השלום

Vlad, from my first meeting with you I knew that that working with you was going to be a pleasure and that you were going to be an integral part of the AudienceView team. You were always genuine, honest and a team player. You left this world too soon but you left as a good person, a loved person, a model for us all as we reflect on our own life.

🕯 Vlad, still I am not able to believe that you are not with us any more. You were with me good times, bad times, helped me to get through tough situations. You were like a great brother, teacher and a best friend. I always admired your way of approach, honesty, helping mind and positive energy.
You will be missed forever, my brother. Rest in peace.

Amigo, I can’t believe you left us already.
Your personality made our workplace a better place. It was always a pleasure working with you; your attitude towards work made every task a breeze. I will cherish all professional and none professional moments that we had the opportunity to share together.
Tu memoria estará siempre en mi corazón/ your memory will always be in my heart.
I am grateful to have had the opportunity to know you. Rest in peace my Friend, Rest in peace.

I enjoyed many discussions on skiing, snowboarding and playing soccer with Vlad. He was always a first choice when we had something very important to do. He was really a class act that won't be followed
easily.

Vlad was smart and friendly, with an unsinkable optimism and an earnest eagerness to contribute and do good things for others. I don't think there was ever a problem I had that Vlad wasn't willing to help with -- he was always first to volunteer on the most thorny tasks. Vlad had a lot of friends at AV -- he even got past my aloof disposition and we had some memorable conversations (on family and life). I wish I knew more about what happened, as maybe some details would distract me from how terribly random this seems, and how tragic this abrupt loss of potential joys for Vlad, his family, friends, and the wider circles of people that we are all connected with. The thought that does bring some small happy distraction is that I did get to work with Vlad -- I certainly have some good memories and am maybe a better person as result. You left way too soon, Vlad.

🕯 Vlad, buddy - I miss you.
I will always hold your unflappable positivism close to my heart and will try to live my life to the fullest as you did.
Knowing you has made me a better person.
Take care man... :)
To Vlad's family and friends - I sat next to Vlad for about a year at work, but it is the times hanging out outside of work that I will remember the most. We talked about life, grabbed a lot of great sushi, and played soccer. He shared some great stories and anecdotes about you.
He loved you!
I will always remember him with a big smile and laugh.
My deepest condolences.

It is extremely hard to believe that you are gone. Your bright smile, caring and willingness to help whoever asks will be sorely missed. You made so many contributions in so many ways to everyone here and I am very sure with your family and friends.
You were a remarkable young man who made me a better person for knowing. You will be greatly missed and please know that my thoughts and prayers are with your family and friends during this difficult time.
With sincere sympathy.

It is with a great deal of sadness that I find myself posting here. Vlad, as we all know, was a cheerful presence at AudienceView. Calm, seldom stressed, and often pitching in and happy to do so. That's what makes for a great teammate and a better friend to many. While I may no longer be working at AudienceView, there's is no doubt that Vlad will be sorely missed by his friends and co-workers.
To all of Vlad's family, both personal and professional, I want to extend my deepest sympathies and condolences.

🕯 The saying that only the good ones die young is painfully true in case of Vlad. It cannot be said enough what a kind friendly genuine smart hard working guy Vlad was. He made a positive impact on all people around him.
It's unbelievably hard to talk about Vlad in past terms. All dreams and future plans cut short in a moment. This is a trully terrible loss. You left us way too soon Vlad and you will be sorely missed.
My deep condolences to Vlad's family which lost such a great son and brother.
Rest in peace dear friend

I'm in total disbelief at this tragic news. I spent a few days working with Vlad on a project in 2014 and he was a pleasure to work with. He was quietly brilliant as he got on with the task at hand as well as being very funny and positive the entire time.
I offer my deepest sympathies to Vlad's friends and family as they deal with this terrible tragedy.

To Vlad, we were all the most special, amazing, perfect human being in the world. Anyone that met him felt like the most special person in the room not only because he made you feel that way but because he truly believed that you are. He valued the individuality of people and all the things that made each of us unique. He loved everyone the most and equally at the same time. We all have a completely different but equally as special relationship with the amazing man that he is. He will always be an is and I will continue to live my life as he would have encouraged me to. As myself. No one was ever as excited to hear about an accomplishment or most sympathetic or empathetic to a tragedy. He felt our pain, he lived our joy, he will always be here more now than ever. I miss you. I love you. You will always be with me. From your laugh, to your smile, to your voice, to your walk, to your hugs I will never forget and will continue to cherish. I'm blessed to have known him let alone call him my friend.

Vlad,
Thank you for sharing yourself to us here at AudienceView. I had the privilege to get to know you even for a short period of time and within that time I had known a great person in you. Rest in peace, our friend.

Vlad was one of my best friends. I never really could stray too far from his kind, loyal and empathetic soul. He was with me through the best and worst parts of my life, and I truly wouldn't be where I am today if it weren't for him. The news of his loss broke me, but I take comfort in knowing the positive impact he had on myself and so many others. He was a true friend, one that I could never and will never forget. Love you always buddy.

While I only worked with Vlad for a short time, he came across to me as a very compassionate and caring person whose positive personality was infectious. My heartfelt sympathies and condolences are with the family during this tragic and difficult time.

This is extremely sad and my deepest condolences to Vlad's family and friends. We are all better for having known him, however short a time. I will always remember Vlad with that small smile on his face, the twinkle in his eye, how bashful he got when he was praised, and for his amazing patience and positivity. He was always willing to help when needed. Gone much too soon. Vlad - you will be sorely missed.

Such a sweet guy. I had the pleasure of working with him at AV on team projects. His patience and care when working with others did not go unnoticed. We shared a few laughs, soccer chats and team events. Such an honest, genuine and positive person. I am deeply saddened and offer my condolences to his family and friends.

Vlad was one of the friendliest, most helpful and positive guys I got to know over the last year and a half. It is unbelievable for someone so humble and unselfish at the prime of their life to not be with us anymore. I never had so much fun playing table tennis than with him. We always ended up using the full length of the social room and it was just the best of times playing with him here. My condolences to his family and friends as they must be going through the toughest, most devastating of times. Rest in peace, Vlad, you have gone far too early!
