Roshan Singh Obituary
It was essential for both of the Singh children to leave very early on the day of the attack -- by 6:20 a.m. -- because their roles were so crucial at the conference breakfast at Windows on the World.
Khamladai, 25, as an assistant banquet manager, would be greeting the participants at 8 a.m.; her little brother, Roshan, 21, was arranging the audio-visual presentation. There were 600 guests, after all, and preparations had to be flawless. So they left the family home in Woodhaven, Queens, together as they always did, caught the A train and arrived by 7 a.m.
If brother and sister were extremely close, doing just about everything together, it is true that Khamladai often had the tighter schedule: after her day at Windows, she studied computer programming full time at Borough of Manhattan Community College. There were times, though, when Roshan was equally pressed, thanks to his duties in the Army National Guard.
Now their mother, Toolsiedai Seepersaud, waits in a quiet house for her only children with their stepfather, Jamil Awan. "I am just hoping they are together," she said.

These siblings always come to my mind when I think of 9/11. My fellow New Yorkers. Sending your family so much love, especially your mom. I hope that in your last moments you were hugging and were there for each other.

We send our deepest heartfelt condolences to your family for such a heartbreaking loss of losing both Roshan and Khamladai. There are no words that will ever remove the deep pain but please know that others still do care. May God always give the support needed. Both are still missed by others and will not be forgotten.

September 12, 2012
In my Theology class Iam supost to pick someone from 9/11 to write a comment on their page. I know I never knew you but I pray for your family and friends, I can't imagine what kind of pain was felt, and the pain that is still felt today. Watching 9/11 on tv is tragic and it brings tears to my eyes every time I see that and ink about all the lives that were lost and all the loved ones. Your in my prayers.

Even after all these years I can only imagine the grief you still feel. My sincere sympathies for you on your tragic loss of two. I just came across the photo of your missing children. I hoped they were found alive. I am so sorry so late.

Hey buddy,
After 8 yrs. I still remember like it was yesterday, our "last horah" @ Ft. Mccoy.. We had many good times, & I'll always tip my glass to you in memory.
I've dawned the unit crest & gauntlets every year as a reminder of why we were who we were & what we did. Rest In Peace w/ Kami. You & your family are always in my thoughts.

Sean,
On the one year anniversary of September 11, here in Emporia, Kansas, a town you had probably never heard of, our local fire department sponsored a memorial. People were invited to draw a name from all those who were killed that day, and to ring a fire bell in memory. I drew your name Sean, and I will never forget it. The next day, I bought a charm for my charm bracelet and had it engraved with your name. I've carried it with me all these years and although we had never met, I feel like I know you because you live in my heart. I know you and your sister are together in Heaven. God Bless your mother and give her peace.

To my brother from another mother. I wish we could've hung alot more, It's sad to see you and Khami leave this earth so soon. I've spent years, as my brother has, trying to get over the tragic loss but i just want to let you, the family keeps you and khami both, depply in our hearts. We lost a great soldier and a damn good friend, God bless.

Dear Roshan
It has been three years now since you have been gone, but it still feels like yesterday. You are thought of often, and I often wondered what it would have been like knowing you. I go back time again and read all the wonderful words that are written about you, and feel comfort that your were alot like your father, always protecting your sis, just like he has always done for me and your other aunts. I miss you and love you and this message is written on behalf of your Dad. He misses you terribly and it give him great comfort that you and Kami are with each other forever.

As a mother, I can only imagine the depth of your loss, Mrs. Seepersaud.
While in New York in April 2002, I viewed the hundreds of postings displayed outside of the WTC site. I was drawn to Roshawn & Khamiladai's posting immediately because the affectionate picture displayed TWO people. After reading that both were missing, my heart immediately went out to you.
I took a picture of the posting, and feel that it should be here of all places.
God bless the entire family feeling such a painful loss.

Sean:
Today marks the 2nd year anniversary of the World Trade Center catastrophe. I sit here and reminisce about all the good times we shared together. It seems like only yesterday you were at my house,
when we pulled that birthday prank on you. I can’t emphasize enough how much we (Shabana, Shabeer, Imran)have missed you. You are still in our hearts and forever will be.
Auntie Ruby:
Our hearts go out to you. Sean and Khami were two amazing children and you did an outstanding job raising them. Sean praised you and only had great things to say about you and Khami. We had the honor of knowing them both and for that we are extremely great full.

My best friend Sean & kami were such amazing people my heart was
broken into tiny pieces the day they were taken from my life.
I have so many wonderful memories
w/Sean that I'll cherish for the rest of my life. Since he's been gone I've tried seeking comfort by staying close to his mom being there for her.
God bless!!
Be strong!!
Love always

Ruby,
Its almost a year, I know you do not need to be reminded of this but please think of what a wonderful son Sean was, I still remember as if it was yesterday how Sean would give his undivided attention to Pandit Krishna as he relayed his sermon. The were wonderful children.
Khami & Sean would be truly missed today, tomorrow and forever.
They are our heroes, I am proud to have known them.
Mother Durga's blessing.

I just want the mother of Roshan Singh to know that her children are with no doubt still with her smiling together, watching over her. I hope that if you have not found peace yet that you will soon,it is very hard in such a confused world, but they will hold your hand and help you. (From a woodhaven girl)

A constant wish that you were here,
Words are few, thoughts are deep,
Memories of you we shall always keep.
May you rest in peace.
May God give strength to your mother and family to cope with the formidable loss or your and Kami's life. God Bless.

We are tremendously sorry for your loss of Sean. Our hearts cry for you.
America Cries
We see your sorrow-
and our hearts cry....
We can not erase your pain
but you do not have to face the anguish alone-for we-
-the American people-
are beside you.
We so desperately want to have the touch that brings you comfort,
the strength that gives you courage,
and the words to lighten your spirits.
And when we are left speechless
may the silence of our nation weave love into your hearts
to ease your sorrow.
May you find healing through our nation's strength as we-
-the American people-
face this difficult time together. Our hearts are with you. Teresa Jahn

My pain and sorrow are great! My Heart is Very, very heavy! Both of your children are together now on a new journey. They are not alone. Please be assured you will see them again some day. Sometimes I don't understand why such beautiful people are taken but then I remember "Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God".
