Bardi, my brother, my friend! Eh! How can you leave so soon? So unexpectedly? So abruptly??? Why? You called me on December 27 and we spoke for about 20 minutes. we discussed life, plans, projects, work and family. You were fine then. Then this? I will miss you, my brother. I will always remember the good times, the fun times, the challenging times and the hard times. We stuck together and held each other up. I will miss the pep talks we gave to each other. You are gone, but never forgotten. Godspeed, my brother, my friend. May Allah receive you with open arms. We shall continue on....
