I just found out the Mrs Sherbanu Mohammed Habib of Musoma passed away she was 92 yers old. But I do not remember her. Hope you know who she is. Her funeral is tomorrow, Sept 10, 2011 at 9.30 am in Toronto.
It is Sherbanu Habib Mohamed, wife of late Habib Mohamed (brother of Dhanji Mohammed) of Musoma Bus Services. Late Sherbanu is mother of Mansur, Izzat, late Firoz, and Naseem. Used to live next to Kotecha. Funeral was held this morning (Sept 10, 2011).
