An inspiring young man and Christian.

Thank you, David, for your friendship with him through your college years. He was such a tremendous personality, such an example of fidelity to the Christ. I've been deeply impacted by him and continue to mourn his loss. I continue to listen to him and am so glad to have that access.

His last days were SO very hard that for a while I was imploring God to take him to his eternal rest. And yet, his passing opened a valve of grief in me which is with me yet.

Thank you for posting that picture of a young Nabeel with your boy (or boys) perched on him. It has been beautiful to see him as a young man and a new Christian.

I'm sorry for your loss and sorry, too, that his parents harbor resentment for you stemming from his abandoning of Islam. Thanks for all that you did for him in this life and for loving him enough to be sure that you'll see him at the wedding feast. I thank you, too, for what you've done for me.

Oops! Sorry OddLane. I saw the name and burst into tears. Then my vision got foggy and I replied to you. Pardon.
