Age 42

Beloved son of Michael & Nadiya. Loving brother of Alliya, Haider, & Zainab. Loving uncle of Olivia, and Julia.

Whether it was his hobbies and interests in the creative arts and music, or his occupation in finance and real estate, he always achieved, excelled, and had an entrepreneurial spirit. He was dedicated to researching and expanding his knowledge in health, wellness and healing, while sharing with others all that he'd learned. And most important to him in his heart, was his dear family and friends.

Visitation Thursday 4 pm - 9pm with Eulogies at 7 pm, and prayers to follow.
