It’s been a sad Father’s Day for Mayor Naheed Nenshi and his family, who are mourning the loss of his dad who died Sunday.
Kurbanali Hussein Nenshi, who just turned 72 on Saturday, was born in Tanzania in 1940 and settled with his wife Noorjah in Canada in 1971, settling in Calgary in 1973.
“In many ways, his life was ordinary – struggle, sacrifice, giving back to the community, building an amazing future for his family,” the family said in a statement.
“But he never forgot just how extraordinary this country and this city are, in giving him and so many others amazing opportunity.
“This, combined with his deep and unshakeable faith, led him to instill the value of service in everyone he touched. Kurban was a compassionate man who loved his family with a fierce devotion.”
The family thanks the many health care professionals who helped Kurbanali until the end.
