Brother Twahir, one of our stalwart members passed away recently.  He was well known to the Guyanese community, having served in the police force for 33 years.   He was a founding member of Masjid Abu Ubaidah, and dedicated his life to the service of Islam.
Brother Rudy is also to be commended for his dedication and hard work.  He teaches Arabic classes to the kids every Sunday and is very much involved in the affairs of the masjid. 
There are also many other stalwart members who will be featured here as we get our site going, inshallah!
