TAN SRI MOHD EFFENDI NORWAWI AND CASMAD SANURI

- –Elyna Effendi

“Both my dad and my husband sadly lost their fathers at a young age, but I’m amazed every day at the fathers they became. There were some challengin­g years when my dad and I were somewhat distant, but because of Memed I found my way back into my dad’s life. Today I treasure our afternoons on the golf course, our family dinners and movie nights.

“I shall forever be grateful to both of these men for so many things in my life today. Dad has been the one who pushed my siblings and I to be our best, the one who taught me how to harness my strengths, and the person who reminded me daily how important it was to be good, kind and thoughtful towards every human being we encounter no matter their circumstan­ce. I thank him for teaching me that nothing is impossible, and that I should never take anything in this life for granted.

“My husband, and father to our two children, has been our pillar and foundation in our home. He reminds us all about humility, empathy and compassion. He taught us about considerat­ion, understand­ing and appreciati­on of all the incredible experience­s and people in our lives. I love

our outdoor adventures and that you remind us all to stay fit and healthy.

“To say I’m blessed, almost feels like an understate­ment to have these two special men in my life. I pray that they know how special they are to me and the kids (and grandkids), and I thank them with all my heart for their support and unconditio­nal love. So, for Father’s Day, we shall eat your favourite food, play your favourite game and watch your favourite film to thank you for all the times you’ve been there for us. Happy Father’s Day... we love you!!”
