My father was a remarkable man whose legacy & life's influences are much beyond his family members and relatives. Despite his humble upbringing, he became a family man who anchored the so called Felema family with his mother, Radee Shale. It is an understatement to say that his passion to empower others, especially girls and women make him years ahead of his time. I want him to be remembered as a loving father, grand father, & husband; a caring brother, a community activist, a visionary, and an avid planner.
