“It is with sad heart we have to inform that Dolatkhanu Kassam Bhanji Adatia, popularly known as Dolu Teacher, has passed away after a short illness. (In Dar Es Salaam, on January 16, 2010)

Dolu Teacher has shaped and influenced the lives of many Musomians, both as a teacher and private tutor, and also as a friend and colleague. After leaving Aga Khan Primary School, she joined the bank in Musoma and later went to Dar-es-Salaam.

She will be fondly remembered and may Allah rest her soul in eternal peace.”

    Our deepest condolences to Dolu teacher’s family. She was a very courageous lady , and touched the lives of many children in Musoma, including mine. She lived an examplary and full life. I was very fortunate to meet her again at the Musoma Reunion in London. She was still full of zest and had a very positive outlook to life.
