“Small Time, but in that small, most greatly lived this star…”
– Shakespeare

How do you measure a life? The thousand myriad ways in which your music, your laughter, your hopes and dreams were woven so inextricably into our lives. The colours of your life were deep blues and greens, the colour of sound. Those colours are now missing from the design, those threads were cut off too soon. Without you, the pattern that was our family unravels all around us. And though we hope that one day a new pattern may reveal itself, we know it cannot
be as strong or whole, as rich and beautiful as it once was. We will miss you every day, for all our lives. We love you.

– Mom, Dad, Sohrab and Shireen
