The Mohamed family has expressed their gratitude to all those who stood by them and supported them following the passing of Advocate Hishaam Mohamed MP
We as the Mohamed family would like to express our sincere gratitude to the family, friends and associates of our dear brother, Advocate Hishaam Mohamed MP, for all the messages of condolence and support this week.We are still devastated by his sudden passing, and are battling to process what has happened. Hishaam was a father figure to us all, following the death of our dad, Abdullah Sheikh Mohamed, in 2002.
He was a voice of reason, always providing sage words when it was most needed. He was fiercely protective of his family, especially his siblings, wife Rachmat and children Imraan, Haneem and Uzair. He has been hailed this week as a ‘People’s Advocate’, ‘champion for the poor’, ‘human rights activist’ and ‘servant of the people’, and all those descriptions certainly ring true.
He also hosted soup kitchens, organised food parcels and sanitary care-packs for people in the poorest areas of the Southern Suburbs like Lotus River, Parkwood, Ottery, Overkamp/Cafda, New Horizons, Phumlani Village, Lavender Hill, Masiphumelele, Vrygrond, Ocean View, Westlake and Simon’s Town during the COVID-19 lockdown.
