Thank you to everyone who signed Naeem's Guest book as well as those who were able to attend the funeral. Naeem is a wonderful and loving brother that we all cherished. He always tried to do what he could for others and was appreciative when other were able to help him. He will always be in our hearts, mind, prayers, wishes, memories, thoughts, laughter, tears, and much more. I love you Naeem and it hurts to know that you are not physically here with us. Everywhere I go and everywhere your friends and family go, we all know you ARE there!! I LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER UNTIL WE SEE EACH OTHER AGAIN.

Naeem was a delightful person to be around. He was intelligent,
charming and had a graceful wit about him. And yes, a smile that could light up a room. He easily made friends and was always ready
to add a new friend to his circle of buddies. Naeem's friends genuinely liked being around him and valued his friendship.
We extend prayers of sympathy to Naeem's father, mother, step-father and sisters during this difficult time of loss. May you find comfort in the wonderful memories that you have of your loving son and brother.
