Tombol

Dear Malik Family,

My heart goes out to you.  Tombol and I worked together at Cafe Florian.  He had an innocence about him that people were instinctively drawn to--he was everyone's surrogate little brother.  Shiera, as an older-sister, I think of you especially during this painful time. When I would give Tombol my "sisterly advice", he would always smile and tell me to relax, reminding me he already had a big-sister at home.  Although we've never met, Tombol talked about you so much I feel as if we have.  He was so proud of you. I feel privileged to have known Tombol.  My prayers are with you all during this time of loss.
