Inna LiLLahi wa inna iLaihi Raji'un!!!
A simple and highly principled gentleman you were
Cannot believe it's almost 10 years since ALLAH the Knower of all things took you away at an age too soon.....
This is Praying you are resting Peacefully in Al-Jannah Firdausi...Ameen summa Ameen...

Dear Grandpa,
I wish I had gotten to know you a lot better because I have heard a lot of wonderful stories about you. You will be in our hearts forever and I'll see you in about 80 years or so. Lots of love ~ Aisha ❤️

Dear Dad - you are forever living on in our hearts and minds. Today in our minds, you became grandpa to another beautiful baby girl from Seyi and Zulaiha. I wish you were here and I miss you so much!
Rest in peace - you are forever missed!

Live on uncle in the hearts of all the people that knew and loved you. You were like a father to me and the memory held of you is that of a kind, gentle and hard working man. Your time was short but it was well spent, You loved your family and loved God which was in itself an epistle that I read and which left an indelible mark in my life. Thank God for the life you lived and for the mark you made. Much as we wished you were still here, God knows best. Live on in the bosom of God.

I remember how kind and gentle you were. I felt like a daughter even though I was just your daughter's BFF. Once you talked with me about the importance of being kind to strangers and doing something positive for someone everyday. I remember asking if I had to go look for someone to be nice to and worried about being taken advantage of. But you said if I desired it enough, God would allow people with needs find me. You also said we have to wake up each morning determined to do something good for someone besides ourselves (I paraphrase) and it did not matter if the person was unappreciative because we would be doing it as unto God. I will never forget that.

I have memories of you teaching me the most important things in life. Alhamdulillah.

It still feels like yesterday...definitely not NINE years! Big hugs for my cool dad. Gone way too soon!

My Dear Dad, there is not one day that goes by that I do not think of you or feel you by my side. I miss your physical presence!
Thanks you for all the love, laughter and compassion you taught me.
I love you.
