It is with great sadness that I inform you of the passing of PriceScope's CEO, Andrey Pilipchak and my beloved husband. After 35 years together, I lost my beloved Andrey. He was so very sweet, kind, loving and generous. He was my world. Our family suffered an enormous loss last week due to a heart attack, with no history.

I'm sure you're all wondering what's going to happen to PS. Andrey has always referred you as PS family, a family that will come together to always support and educate the diamond industry. He would want us to move on and continue his work. Together, we will make it through this difficult time, with the help of our PS Family Team as always. They have been working with Andrey and know his wants and thoughts. He was very happy and thankful with their work, stands behind them. So let's stand together in memory of Andrey and continue his work.

The PS Family Team and I ask you for patience and understanding, and we need your support more than ever. We also thank you for all your support throughout the years and the years to come.

With love,
Linh (pronounced Ling)

I am so sorry for your loss. He will be greatly missed.

On a personal note, I lost my late husband in a similar, shocking fashion. No warning. It’s very difficult for the survivors. My heart goes out to you and yours.

Dear Linh,
We are deeply shocked and saddened at the news. Our hearts go out to you and your children and the entire family.

Andrey was an absolute gentleman in the truest sense. His warmth and kindness were always on full display in all of our interactions through the years. No matter the situation, he was always ready with a smile and a calming, positive approach to any discussion. He will be truly missed, and remembered with great affection.

On behalf of the the Whiteflash family, we share your grief and stand ready to help in any way possible.

Oh my god.

I can’t even find words. This is the most horrifying update I could have imagined. I’m SO sorry Linh. I remember meeting you both in Vegas many years ago… Such a beautiful and obviously-in-love couple.

Andrey loved PS. He really really really did. It was obvious in every email I ever exchanged with him. And we loved him. My heart is with you Linh. Please take care of yourself. Your PS family is here for you.
