The last time I saw you was Sept. 19th at your apartment and you were making food and sharing it with your neighbor because that is what you loved doing....then I said goodbye and you walked me out....Thank you hemo for your love and many laughter's. I will miss the days where you would come over and just sit in my living room making jokes, I will miss going to the bowling alleys with you and I will miss the many times you would just call to say hi. I miss you soooo much and I know that you are with our heavenly Father and are very happy. You are in a much better place now. Thank you for all the smiles and fun times. Love you Hemo!

Miss you Uncle Hema. You were the most loving and caring person. You always found a way to make everyone smile and laugh.

October 16, 2009

Dearest Sam and Rebecca,
We never got to know Hema except through the wonderful tesimonies shared by the two of you. If he was anything like you both, I know that we would have adored him.
May God hold you close to Him as you release Hema to receive his amazing inheritence.
Much Love,
Kim, Mike and family

Hemo, with a broken heart I say goodbye until we meet again with the Lord where we suffer no more. You have been always a dear and loving friend, and I spent some of my most memorable times with you. I will always miss you and your company. I may be sad that you departed our world, but I'm sure you are there where He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.
