Soraya Kiai

Born on March 25, 1938, in Kashan, Iran, Soraya was a devoted member of the Bahá'í Faith, and her faith shaped how she lived. She loved her family, her friends, and her community, and her presence was felt by everyone who crossed her path. She gave her time and warmth freely, and she is remembered for her devotion to those she loved and for the joy she brought to others.

She is survived by her children Mehran (Cristina), Mitra (Golrooz), and Mehrdad (Lida); her eight grandchildren and three great-grandchildren; her sister; and many extended family members and friends. She was predeceased by her beloved husband, Mehdi Kiai.

"Cause her, O Lord, to be overshadowed by the clouds of Thy bounty and favor, immerse her in the ocean of Thy forgiveness and clemency, and enable her to enter the sanctified abode, Thy heavenly Paradise."
