Hello Norma,
This is your former neighbor, Dave Lepkowski, of Reston, VA. I just wanted to let you know that I saw your memorial water bench at the new Pentagon Memorial yesterday morning.

I posted a memorial to Norma along with thousands of other memorials, and I have reposted the memorial each year since. I would love to know if Imran is in college and how he is doing.

I can never forget the day I heard about Norma, or Mrs. Khan as I always called her. It was OCTOBER 2001, and I was touring junior boarding schools in New England. Of course, I couldn't let this opportunity slip without calling Imran; it had been four years since I last saw him in third grade. He picked up, and as usual, he enthusiastically exclaimed my name. But I could feel a change of rhythm in his voice. He calmly put his aunt on the phone. She asked if I knew about the Pentagon incident. I replied, "yes," with no idea of what was about to hit me. After a few moments of hesitation, she told me that Imran's mother is no longer with us in this world. My mother, who sat next to me, broke into tears. I sat on the bed, blankly staring into the bright lamp above the phone, still unable to take in what had happened.
I remember my first day at Fairfax Christian School, in 1995. Our family was to live in the States while my father got his lawyer's degree at Georgetown. I couldn't speak a word of English. Then a bright, energetic fellow classmate opened up to me. We started off sharing crayons, and our friendship quickly escalated to routine sleep-overs, in which we would play "Starship Troopers." And no matter what, Mrs. Khan was always there for us. My parents would often sit down and talk with Mrs. Khan before sleepovers. My father would always leave saying in Korean, "She's one of the most optimistic persons I've ever met. How is she so kind to everybody?"
I can still remember her voice, her laugh, her showing the "I like to move it" dance moves in the car, and how she was never discouraged by anything.
Imran, if you ever read this message, I'm sorry I wasn't there for you. It's been years since we lost contact. I would have called you every day, but I was afraid I might be making it worse for you. I want you to know that no matter what happens, you're my best friend, and I'll always pray for you.
Mrs. Khan, you were like a mother to me. The best of my childhood memories lie with you and Imran. I'll never forget you.

Here in Houston, I had the priviledge of a chance meeting with the mother of Ms. Norma Khan. She generously shared some of her special memories of her beloved daughter. I hope time has begun to heal some of her mother's deep pain. The family remains in my thoughts always.

I worked with Norma at Software AG Federal in the 90's. The thing I remember most about her was her "always on" smile and sunny and happy personality. Norma never seemed to have a bad day.
She was a true bright spot in everyone's day.
Our thoughts are with you Norma...

Anyone who has had the pleasure of knowing my aunt Norma knew what kind of person she was. She was the ultimate best. The thing I miss the most is her laugh. It was so contagious. Not a day goes by that I do not think about my mother's sister. I miss you TiTi. I know you are watching over me and proud of all my accomplishments. I've come to far to be a quitter. I'm going to make you and grandma proud. I promise. Until we meet again........"Munch"

what you two perhaps did together,
what he/she meant to you,
