Some of my favorite memories are being babysat as a small child in Boulder by my aunt and uncle in their apartment in Boulder and awkwardly trying to imitate Aunt Shahin´s dance moves as she exercised while watching "Jacque Lelanne" (sp?) on the television. A very funny, kind, loving person.

Remembering my dear "Big Sister" Shahin: It is now almost two years since your passing on August 17, 2018. Goodness and magnanimity are two epithets that would eternally apply to you. True wealth lies in the good name you have left behind. Teymour Dowlatshahi.

To our beloved Shahin,
Although always in a land far away, we felt you near. My mother Homayoun never ceases to speak of you; few of her classmates transcended time like this. You were there, when her life was in peril and mine started. The first photo of me in this world shows you sheltering me in your arms. Whenever Homayoun talked to you, her day brightened. The modesty with which you bore your burden lightened ours. Albeit remote, you were always part of our life and we miss you dearly.
We can hardly fathom, how much deeper the grief is for your immediate family. We pray they will overcome the sorrow and revel in fond remembrances. Our humble condolences go out to your Manuchehr, Maryam, Ali and Hussein.
On behalf of his solemnly mourning mother Homayoun and the Nabavi family, Asadollah and Susanne
Faithfully

Death is not the end of a relationship. Shahin will always remain in our heart.
Deepest condolences to her family: beloved husband Manuchehr, beloved children Hosein, Ali, Maryam and respective families.
Shahin was a special soul who was truly a precious sister to me. Her love for people and for life was so genuine. Forever loving, forever loved

I am thinking of my elder sister Shahin from a geographical distance as I am unable to be present. My profoundest condolences go to the whole family: beloved husband Manuchehr, beloved children Maryam, Ali, Hossein and respective families. Shahin was a supremely magnanimous and courageous spirit whose wise counsel was highly valued. She was ever-radiant and full of goodness. Her past kindnesses will be forever imprinted in my heart. RIP Dear Sister.
