A Tribute to my loving DaDa………

Dada …I still can’t accept as true that you are not here for us anymore!I can’t even dare to imagine that our house 33 ahsanullah house , how it looks without u and I will not going to see you there anymore. Dada, although, I’m too far away from there, I am feeling I’m hearing your voice coming from downstairs calling my sweet Darling …’Shehnaaz…..Shehnaz..’

Dada how can I forget those days ?

When I was little and you were calling me shengri and used to tell people “ettho mera shengri Hein”. Although the name was funny but I used to feel so comfortable and used to keep hanging around you to hear the name again, as I could feel so much love for us u had underneath in your heart.

Those days can never be forgettable,when sometimes; you used to walk along the veranda and in house to watch what everyone doing. As soon as we heard the sound of your walk we tried to hide away from u as we were also so scared of you. However, you are the person who gave us most love, support and comfort than anyone could ever. Dada your tenderness towards us we have just not seen but also felt from the bottom of our heart. You taught us more by example than words the principle of honesty which you defined as always telling the truth, helping others, never telling a lie about anything, paying your just and honest attention, fulfilling all of your promises to other people, and sharing and taking any problems of others which didn’t even belong to you. Whenever we need anything you appeared suddenly to give support and strength. Your caring thoughts and steps about others always brought me into reconciliation you are not just a good man but a Great Man. You were not only a Dada for me, you were a teacher, a guardian and a father for everyone! A Legend!

Dada,Thank you so much for everything!

Dada words won’t describe that how much I’m missing you. Your absence is enormous depressing to me and offcourse for the whole family! Dada, we love you so much, so much and more, much than we could ever realize you. If Allah would have given me one more chance, I would have asked ‘Oh Allah, take my everything but please, don’t take my dada, keep him healthy, wealthy and sound to do his jobs same as before and forever.’ But its too late now and you are gone... :( but, Dada.....You will be missed and blessed surely for rest of our lives. My few little words will not be enough to say about you; as person ' who you are' and 'what you were' and recover the emptiness inside us.

Dada, I sense, we are now lost without you!

May Allah Bless you and
place you in 'Jannatul Ferdous'.
