Well Mr. Ali I can not express how I feel, I know that it is totally sadness and you will be missed more than you know. We always made a joke of the spelling of our daughter's name and no one can seem to get it right as you would say. I wished that I could have said goodbye but I think that it is best that I didn't because I can keep the fond vision of when I last saw you. Take care. The correct spelling of your daughter's name is Tiashanda S. Richardson and we live in Columbia S.C.
