Papa with his radio. He was always the first person to wake up in the morning in our house
and use to enjoy his hobby of listening to the radio, I have seen him doing this all my life since my earliest memories and
used we to love the theme music of Radio Tanzania and Radio One since childhood. It was like a morning alarm for
all of us when his radio turns on, Papa our house without you and mummy in the morning will really sound ghostly.
Mummy in our house, she always used to chat to us whenever we came back from outside about
our school,friends and daily life. She used to love chatting with us and always very anxious to know about things as she was
most of the time at home and didnt see outside world that much, just for us so that to make sure we eat, study n live properly
and also make sure that Papa didnt feel alone when he comes back from work, its a sacrifice of a lifetime Mummy!
Mum used to tease us everyday through singing her favourite songs by using her own lyrics in
it and we used to have a good laugh whenever she did that especially in the morning while she used to make breakfast
for us and the evening when she used to make tea for us, We will really miss u Mummy!
Last three year of his life, Papa worked for SoleAero Limited, a new Company owned by my uncle
Abbas Nurbhai producing insectisides known famously in Tanzania as "Mzinga" and "Zapit". He was the Managing Director
of this Company In Tanga. Although at an age of 57 he put all his efforts in this company, we never saw him this much
dedicated and commited before, making the company succesfull became one of the goals of his life. Even Mum
got so inspired from his hardwork and used to go and help him everyday in the office. He almost singly-handedly raised and
promoted this company in Tanzania, unfortunately just when the product was booming in Tanzania he passed away. He just
saw the first fruits of his dream before he passed away.

Mum with her mobile. When both me and my brother left for UK, Mum and Dad really
missed us and Mum used to text us everyday using her mobile. Just the night before they passed away she texted both me
and my brother a very touching forward, we didnt find it touching at first but when we read her message now we feel that it
was the most important message of her life. It was like a miracle and it was one of her last text message.
When Ali was about to leave for U.K, Mum and Dad asked him to take them to Internet Cafe so
that they can see me through webcam. They were very happy to see me and we chatted for about 2 hours. This was the last time
they saw me, as if they knew it all what was gng to happen.
