Taghi
I cant believe you are gone,  You were always there on the other end of the phone when we called..   I will always have fond memories of you and Yvonne visiting us when we lived in Downey..
Ali when you see this Tony and I would like to talk with you.

Conversation with My recently departed brother Taghi

I am talking with my brother in my head,
I ask, where did you go, now that you are dead?
We did not get a chance to say goodbye,
God, how I wish that I could, at least, try.

Remember, the jokes and stories we shared?
Remember, our chats, our silly fights?
But inside our hearts, we knew and always cared
We thought we had forever to make it right.

Remember that one summer dad made a fuss,
When dad ruined it all by having a tutor for us?
Remember how the calf got loose and jumped in our pool?
We rushed out to take part in rescuing the calf, it was cool.
The best part was, no more class that day,
We enjoyed ourselves to laugh and to play

Remember our Village manager’s wife?
Wearing tons of gold on her neck and wrists,
And those gold plated teeth,
That she was so proud to show off?

Remember the times we shared,
When you were in boarding school ,
And I was getting ready to come to America?

Remember when you just arrived here
After four years in England?

Remember when you graduated from Cal Poly?
Remember when you left for Iran to become a doctor?
I can go on and on dear brother.
I know I will miss you and there will be pain,
But I have my memories, I can’t complain.
I know you were not quite done here,
You had plans to travel far and near.

You had hoped for the magic to return,
For another chance to take another turn.
You were teaching yourself to play Santour,
You were planning to go on European tour,
You wanted to go to England for a while,
You wanted to see the Pyramids, the Nile.

I will miss our Saturday calls,
I will miss hearing your voice,
I will miss your jokes,
I will miss your wit,
I will miss the stories you told,
I will miss all the stories untold,
I will miss the times we shared.
Most of all, 
I will miss you.

There is so much more I want to say,
Now that you left us, are on your way.
I want to thank you my dear brother Taghi,
As you are roaming high wherever it may be.


I met Taghi in 1968 while taking engineering studies at Cal Poly Pomona.  He was the most helpful Freind I had at that time.  We both graduated and kept in touch.  While in school we both got married and kept our friendship until Taghi decided to go back to Iran.  Years later we connected again when he came back to California. I am so sorry to hear his passing.  Hope we will connect again when I complete my time in this planet.

To my beloved brother Taghi
This is the last letter I will write to you,
As you are finished here and continue.

You are leaving this beautiful planet behind,
As you continue on, hope and peace you will find.

Soaring through our solar system then Milky Way,
Then you will join the eternal light well on your way.
You will treat this ultimate journey as a venture,
Knowing you, you will take it as new adventure.

I remember your rare, boyish, shy and beautiful smile,
Going through life, and enduring loneliness all the while.
I remember your quick mind and amazing memory,
Sense of humor, your love of music, poetry and history.

You accomplished much while here,
You succeeded and faced all your fear.

You read, you studied you worked hard and you learned,
Everything you achieved and received, you certainly earned.

You had so many talents, so many wonderful gifts,
A gifted psychiatrist, that gave his patients’ spirit lift.

Amazing doctor who knew medicine inside and out,
He could, touch and could  diagnose without a doubt.

He could recite many poems, tell many stories, sing and more,
Taghi, loved food, good cooking, and was funny never a bore.

He was smart, frugal, generous, sensitive and kind,
He was a good dresser, had great taste and so refined.

On this final journey, you were all alone at home,
Soon you will join those gone before as you roam.

It is so sad and it sure breaks my heart,
But you will always be here in my heart.

As I close this letter, I will say: till soon when we meet again,
	When we will be together, after I join you leaving this plane.

My dear brother, my last brother and sibling passed away suddenly alone at home on November 5, 2020. He had many unfilled dreams and hopes. He wanted so badly to find a lady to share the rest of his life with. He was sad but still full of life. He managed his life, researched, studied, read, listened to music, followed politics here, in Iran our beloved birth place, and the world. 

A beloved brother, a gifted doctor, an amzing person with a big and generous heart

I am so sorry for the sudden loss of Taghi..He was a very kind person, will be dearly missed..He will always be in my heart, his spirit and love..I loved him dearly! I would like to give my condolences to Ali his brother, and other members of his family..Taghi may you be at piece! Love Jo Anne
