TSIBA mourns the recent passing of Abduraghmaan Vollenhoven. We knew Abduraghmaan as a dedicated Mentor to our students, a father to students who studied with us, a generous financial contributor over many years and a committed human to the service of others, young people in particular. The piece written by Abduraghmaan, and which appeared in a past TSIBA Annual report reflects his values and his humanity. He will be greatly missed, but fondly remembered by the TSIBA community.
