some happy happy moments with our dear Khaled.

Dearest Khalid,

You are enjoying The Heavens Inshallah and we are sad to see you go, this soon.  But didn't we learn in St.Pat's in our English classes that those whom God loves die young.  Easier said than realized. 

Khalid Yar, it seems like yesterday.  You were a charming and handsome young man, the most-model like among us in the Cambridge Class: smart yet soft-spoken; a hero yet modest; quiet yet warm, real warm inside; and the many other admirable attributes of yours we all cherished.  But now these stay with us a shining examples of a great classfellow, an example.  Your conservative lifestyle with a shinning light inspired us all.  You never showed any immaturities that so many of us in the class did; every teacher was sure you were never among the noise-makers; yet you had so much fun with us all. 

Only last year, I was asking Munir Ladak and Munir Bhimjee to re-connect me with you as we had lost touch since I migrated to the U.S. in the 1980s.  I was told that you were leading a focused life with your family and encouraging your children.  My visits to PAK were brief and so also to the UAE.  I am so sad we could not meet-up but we will Inshallah enjoy Jannat-ul-Firdaus together someday Inshallah.  You are now in my prayers dear, dear friend and I will be delighted to meet your children someday to tell them what a Great man you were/are and to assist them in any way that I can in making their lives even greater so your spirit is delighted.

Rest in peace dear friend.  We will see you in the Morning.

Warmly embracing your memories,
