Everyday we remember you and miss you every moment. The values and lessons our daughters have learned from you and still learn, have made them into the amazing, strong, independent and beautiful young women that they are. To look at these two amazing individuals is to look directly at you.
I thank God everyday for the gift he gave me in our children and our life together – I too have learned to be better each day and give back to this world as you always showed us.
Mother’s Day is another opportunity for us to say how much we love you and miss you. God has you in His care and in His light and protection and we thank Him for you beautiful Solveig Zarah Keshavjee. When we look up we can feel your warmth around us, and your strength to keep us going everyday.
We love you
Solveig Zarah Keshavjee singing, her hand gently placed close to Azim’s guitar.
I remember taking Solveig as a surprise to see Bruce Springsteen live…we were both so happy. The songs all became new again and each one was like it was the first time feeling and hearing them – the night was magic and time stood still…my heart grew as I watched her lips sing each song, she was so happy and as she’d looked at me with love and squeezed my hand tighter that moment was ours and ours alone…this is my dedication to you my beautiful angel Solveig …through Bruce’s words and music to say, “I miss you and love you eternally, you’ve got my love, heart and soul”. One day we’ll dance again…beautiful Solveig.
“Drive All Night”
When I lost you honey sometimes I think I lost my guts too And I wish God would send me a word send me something I’m afraid to lose Lying in the heat of the night like prisoners all our lives I get shivers down my spine and all I wanna do is hold you tight
I swear I’ll drive all night just to buy you some shoes And to taste your tender charms And I just wanna sleep tonight again in your arms
Tonight there’s fallen angels and they’re waiting for us down in the street Tonight there’s calling strangers, hear them crying in defeat. Let them go, let them go, let them go do their dances of the dead (let ’em go right ahead) You just dry your eyes girl, and c’mon c’mon c’mon let’s go to bed, baby, baby, baby
I swear I’ll drive all night just to buy you some shoes And to taste your tender charms And I just wanna sleep tonight again in your arms
There’s machines and there’s fire waiting on the edge of town They’re out there for hire but baby they can’t hurt us now Cause you’ve got, you’ve got, you’ve got, you’ve got my love, you’ve got my love Through the wind, through the rain, the snow, the wind, the rain You’ve got, you’ve got my, my love heart and soul
There is not a single day, or moment that goes by where Solveig isn’t remembered in our hearts, in our thoughts, in our memories and in all the love that she has given us that endures eternally.
We miss you so much, and are so grateful that we were chosen to be your family – all those that knew Solveig throughout our 26 years together, know what her family meant to her…and we honor that now, by loving each other and staying by each other’s side through thick and thin.
Dear God, please grant peace eternally to, Solveig Zarah Keshavjee, who is under your care and your grace, that her soul may rest and shine above us, and that she always is proud of us. Dear God please grant peace to all those left behind, allow smiles and happiness to enter our hearts, now and always.
My beautiful Solveig, I shall hold you in my heart until I can hold you in heaven, happy birthday.
Two years ago, my beautiful wife Solveig Zarah Keshavjee became an angel. We miss her, think of her and love her everyday. I see her strength and love in my children and I see how many she touched with her kindness and compassion…I feel sad for those that missed out as you can never go back…never.
Solveig is honoured now by us living our lives to the fullest and continuing to live everyday with love. We miss you and love you, we smile, we still learn from you, and are filled with gratitude always as we remember you… beautiful wife and mother, loved by all, voice of an angel, forever in our hearts. I love you eternally, Azim
Dear God, please keep Solveig Zarah Keshavjee protected and in eternal peace in Your loving arms. We pray for her soul everyday and we love her, we place our trust in You always and know she is safe, looking over us as You shelter us all in Your grace.
As time passes and the days turn to weeks, then turn to months and now almost 2 years have gone by…doesn’t change my love, my memories and my gratitude for every moment I spent with my beautiful Solveig. Though I have found a way to move forward and feel happiness in my memories, doesn’t lessen the loss I feel, the loss our girls feel at losing their mother…we miss Solveig everyday…everyday, and even though we are able feel happiness again and the pain doesn’t sting like a razor cut, we still feel it…we’ll always feel it, but we can now live in the way that Solveig would be proud of.
On this day I remember, as I do every day, our wedding and the start of our life together – I didn’t think it would get cut short after 26 years and I wish we could have had more time together, but for the time we did have, Solveig and I LIVED it FULLY and HAPPILY and steadfast in our Ismaili faith and with the love we have for God – I could not imagine it any other way. Solveig has left such a legacy and I am still learning from her…how to be an even better man, a better father, a better friend, and to continue her love of life, passion and kindness to others.
As life moves forward, not on, but forward, I can smile and laugh again and forge different paths. Life must continue, and new horizons await…yet I know that the whisper I hear in the trees, in my heart and in my soul, that sign, I know is her…it will always be her, guiding, and shining above.
I miss you every day my angel Solveig and I love you with all my heart and soul, that love is special and holds a place only for you. One day, I’ll hear your voice beside me, and you’ll take me home.
Happy anniversary to my beautiful Solveig.
A kiss that began a journey and will continue through eternity.
In loving memory of Solveig Z. Keshavjee,
1963 – 2019
(Solveig Zarah Keshavjee)
Goodnight, my angel Time to close your eyes And save these questions for another day I think I know what you’ve been asking me I think you know what I’ve been trying to say I promised I would never leave you And you should always know Wherever you may go No matter where you are I never will be far away
Goodnight, my angel Now it’s time to sleep And still so many things I want to say Remember all the songs you sang for me When we went sailing on an emerald bay And like a boat out on the ocean I’m rocking you to sleep The water’s dark And deep inside this ancient heart You’ll always be a part of me
Goodnight, my angel Now it’s time to dream And dream how wonderful your life will be Someday your child may cry And if you sing this lullabye Then in your heart There will always be a part of me
Someday we’ll all be gone But lullabyes go on and on… They never die That’s how you And I Will be
Solveig Zarah keshavjee We miss you…everyday, every minute…
We miss you…everyday, every minute…
It was only one hour ago It was all so different then Nothing yet has really sunk in Looks like it always did This flesh and bone Is just the way that we are tied in But there’s no one home I grieve, for you You leave, me So hard to move on Still loving what’s gone They say life carries on Carries on and on and on and on
The news that truly shocks
Is the empty, empty page
While the final rattle rocks
It’s empty, empty cage
And I can’t handle this
I grieve, for you
You leave, me
Let it out and move on
Missing what’s gone
They say life carries on
They say life carries on and on and on
Life carries on in the people I meet
In everyone that’s out on the street
In all the dogs and cats
In the flies and rats
In the rot and the rust
In the ashes and the dust
Life carries on and on and on and on
Life carries on and on and on
Life carries on and on and on and on
Life carries on and on and on
Just the car that we ride in
The home we reside in
The face that we hide in
The way we are tied in
As life carries on and on and on and on
Life carries on and on and on
Did I dream this belief Or did I believe this dream? Now I will find relief I grieve
On our wedding day, when we danced our first song together, Solveig looked me with such love and respect, I couldn’t believe how lucky I was…I couldn’t take my eyes off her either – I knew we were meant to be…our pasts were silenced and the joy of a new day and all the new days that would follow filled us with such love that did not waver – not once in our lifetime together. Solveig may not be here with me anymore physically but she IS always with me and our girls looking over us now and forever. I will be with her again when it is my time, until then I will live as she lived, with love, passion and with unwavering love for our girls.
Our song…”You’re the Inspiration” (Chicago)
You know our love was meant to be The kind of love to last forever And I want you here with me From tonight until the end of time You should know Everywhere I go Always on my mind In my heart In my soul
You’re the meaning in my life You’re the inspiration You bring feeling to my life You’re the inspiration Want to have you near me I want to have you hear me saying “No one needs you more than I need you”And I know (And I know) Yes I know that it’s plain to see So in love when we’re together Now I know (Now I know) That I need you here with me From tonight until the end of time You should know (Yes, you need to know ) Everywhere I go You’re always on my mind You’re in my heart In my soul
You’re the meaning in my life You’re the inspiration You bring feeling to my life You’re the inspiration Want to have you near me I want to have you hear me saying “No one needs you more than I need you” (No one needs you more than I) Want to have you near me I want to have you hear me saying “No one needs you more than I need you” (No one needs you more) You’re the meaning in my life You’re the inspiration You bring feeling to my life You’re the inspiration
When you love somebody ‘Til the end of time When you love somebody Always on my mind / No one needs you more than I When you love somebody ‘Til the end of time When you love somebody Always on my mind / No on needs you more than I need you
Solveig and Azim’s song…the first dance

We were inseparable for 26 years, and that immense love for each other never changed, it only grew stronger every day.
