Dearest shaheena apa,
i heard this morning. i can’t explain how im feeling. but im going to try. even though you were suffering for so long, i will never forget how you tirelessly offered the little time you had to helping the community. looking back you were more than just the sweetest person i know, but the most inspi…ring. you encourage me to have faith, even when its most hard. ordinarily i would be upset that allah would take another person who i respect away from me in such a short period of time, but i feel that if you were here, you probably would not like that approach. i wont lie when i say that i struggle with it, but your memory gives me the strength to believe in what seems to be the unbelievable. in your memory i hope to continue to serve just like you did, and to keep the well being of those less fortunate in mind.
with thanks, love, and appreciation,
