Gone but not forgotten: Tribute to Zee-Zee🕊️🙏

On a day like this several years ago, we would have been reaching out to celebrate.  Happy birthday and warmest wishes, ZeeZee. "Thank you, and I send those same heartfelt wishes to you in advance for your upcoming birthday, my friend." These words remain forever etched in my heart.  ZeeZee, you were a compassionate, encouraging, and ambitious spirit until the very end.  Even months after your passing, ZeeZee, your kindness and the remarkable work you did continue to be remembered.  You were a truly valuable and dependable sister and friend: Zainab Hannah Sankoh (Late).  Today, however, you are not here to mark another birthday.🤦  May Allah forgive any of your shortcomings and grant you eternal peace.🙏  To followers and well-wishers out there, I urge you to love others sincerely and never hesitate to do good whenever you can. May Allah continue to keep us all safe, healthy, and prosperous throughout our lives.🤲
