He used to tell me that education is the most valuable wealth because no one can steal that from you. I admired him for his compassion and intelligence. His words of encouragement helped me get through some difficult times in my life, but his belief in me empowered me to achieve my goals. I am now in Medical School in AZ. If it was not for him and Mama Anchi I probably would not have had this opportunity. I will miss him dearly. chori, Nawang Doma. Uncle Pemba was a remarkable man.

The trip that I took with him to Nepal last year was the best trip I have ever taken in my life. He welcomed our group into his country and his family with such grace and warmth that I almost felt like a relative coming for a visit after a long absence rather than a tourist whom he had never met. Whenever I think of Nepal I will think of Pemba. I thank you Pemba. Susan Doane I was so sorry to hear about Pemba.
