Happy Belated Birthday

Don't know why, but today I thought of Tombol and his family so I decided to go to this blog.

I never met Tombol or the Malik family but I have posted here in the past to send my condolences. I understand that April 3rd would have been Tombol's 26th birthday. His death at such a young age is so jarring. I can't even imagine what his family is going through.

My condolences again, and happy belated birthday Tombol.

Happy Birthday to You

Dear Tombol,

A friend of mine bought me a digital picture frame last year. I immediately loaded it with pictures of those who are close to me. I mean, I am living in Switzerland… can you believe it?! So, I need some remnants from home every now and then. Anyway, that picture of us, the one from the opening with Lana… well, I had to put it in there. I have the frame next to the place I get dressed every morning. The pictures change every 10 seconds, and sometimes I get to catch a glimpse of you before I head to class. I always smile. Yesterday was your 26th birthday, and I thought of you and wondered what you were doing. I miss you. I think about you often… and I will always keep your picture loaded in my picture frame; today, tomorrow, always. Love, aliya.

Happy Birthday T-Bone

While this comes a couple days late, I just wanted you to know that you have not been forgotten (you never are) and I hope that you had a happy, happy, birthday up there, partying with all the other angels. =) We truly do miss you down here though! Hugs and kisses...

Love eternally,
Miriam Y.

Happy Birthday to Beloved Tombol

Our Dearest Tombol,

Our family thought lovingly of you on your 26th birthday, which just passed by 15 minutes. We just had to pause and reflect on how precious you are to so many who will always keep you in their hearts and minds with love!!!!!!!!!

You Are Missed

Tombol, not a day goes by that I don't think about you. You are truly missed. Happy Birthday.

Love,
Eileen

HAPPY 26TH BIRTHDAY MY TOMBOL

Good Morning My Tombol (I told you that you would always be My Tombol even though I know I have to share you with everyone who loves you ;)! HAPPY 26TH BIRTHDAY TO YOU!

Not having you to talk to, to hug, to laugh with, to be with is still so very difficult for me to deal with. I once asked your brother how he deals with you not being here and I knew I could only get one answer..."I don't have a choice". I guess I was looking for another way not to believe any of what had happened to you, My Tombol. You are supposed to be here with us...you are supposed to be here.

Tombol I love you so very much and I just wish I could tell you to your beautiful face. Sometimes I pray to be able to see you just one more time, but I have to be patient until my time here on earth is done. Honestly I find myself searching for pieces of you through your family from their smiles, their laughs and their mannerisms to the shape of their fingers, because I know you live in them always. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think about you and I just can't wait until the day I see you again.

My Tombol I Love You Forever. HAPPY 26TH BIRTHDAY TO YOU!
