Sincerest and heartfelt condolences for Tombol

Dear Uncle Sharaf, Aunt Karen, Shiera, Sat, and Samil,

Since we heard about the tragic passing of our dear brother Tombol we have all been grief-stricken. All of you have been and remain in our thoughts and prayers and we are so relieved that all of you can finally be together. There are no words that can express the sadness and outrage we are feeling at such an inexplicable act of violence. I’ve been reading the blog entries everyday and find solace in the fact that Tombol was a very much loved and highly respected individual; most people live their whole lives and do not earn the kind of respect that Tombol has in his short time with us. For that, I am extremely honored to be a part of his family. May he rest in eternal peace. I pray that you remain strong and persevere. Justice will prevail! God be with you always.

The Taha Family
