Publisher Description: The idea of writing this biography occurred while my late wife Fahmida and I were visiting my Unchle Zaheer in Bedford, England, in April of 2018. Due to Fahmida's illness, I was unable to attend Uncle Zahir' 90th birthday that was clebreated in Bedford England in 2015. But soon thereafter, I gave my promise to him that I will attend his 95th birthday in 2020, and will also write his biography that I'll publish and present it as a gift at his birthday. I made a special trip to England in September of last year to interview him in depth and to collect data on the various milestones of his life. I was amazed at his cognitive abilities at 94 years of age. He readily recollect memories from the years gone by and has no problem n retrieving old information from the archives of his life. This simple biography is written by keeping it candid, relavant and concise and is intended for his children and grand-children to read and retain many of the life's lessons that he has shared throughout his narritive that became the foundation for this biography of my uncle Pastor Zahir Massey. |
