"I thank you for being so much the opposite of me. We learned and unlearned so much from each other, be it about choices, decisions both the right and wrong ones and the journey's been so enriching. " (I) will always be there when you need me and I thank you for being you. Love you and miss you. Happy Birthday Chimmuz," she wrote. /IANS
