Tasneem was truly remarkable. Having taught hundreds of students over the years, I remember a little over a handful of them, and Tasneem is one of those unforgettable students. When she entered Arabic class, she was a force, full of life and enthusiasm. She loved learning with her bright mind, her unique personality and her forever smiling face. She truly enjoyed teaching her classmates and helping whoever needed help. Always happy, always delightful.

Dear Tasneem, I can picture you in the next world just like that, hopping around learning, laughing and being the wonderful soul that you are.
