Hundreds gathered at a vigil to honor Aalia Mahomed, a university student tragically killed by a van in London. Attendees laid flowers at St Mary le Strand Church, wearing her favorite color, dark green. Friends and family shared fond memories, describing her as a radiant personality who spread joy. Aalia's nieces expressed profound love and loss, highlighting her bright spirit, laughter, and baking skills. An aunt recited a touching poem, referring to Aalia as an angel, reinforcing the deep affection the community held for her immense character and influence.
Aalia comes from the Arabic meaning one who is high or exalted. She held a high status all of our lives.
Aalia was our reason for existence. She used to light up any room she walked into.
Fly high my angel, one day we will meet in the stars.
Your laughter still echoes through the house.
