THE MEASURE OF A MAN: Not - "how did he die" But - "how did he live" Not - "what did he gain" But - "what did he give" These are the units To measure the worth Of a man, as a man, Regardless of birth.
- Amir was a GREAT man!

In this moment of sadness I can't help but wonder why the world is filled with such madness. To be able to rewound this I would be taking an angel glowing now around us. So instead I pray for peace within your soul, that the world would see that your heart was made of gold. That your loved ones would never forget your motives that unfold. To see smiles and upbeat lifted souls was your true and purest hope for those. Your daughters and your son. Your brother and wife. I will never forget the nights where you welcomed all with such delight. From birthdays and celebrations you were the number one topping of inspiration. I never thanked you, but from the bottom of my heart your soul touched me. Your welcoming arms embraced me and your love was really felt. Having lost my father when I was young, it truly brought my joy to be around you ti and zoey. That is something that will stick with me forever. And I am forever grateful. You will live on forever!!
