Author Talk and Book Launch: Daddy's Always Near by Aiza Khan

In 2023, life took an unexpected turn when Aiza lost her beloved husband, Jake Siegel, at the tender age of 28. Amidst the heartbreak, she found solace and strength in their beautiful son, Syrus. It was for Syrus, and for all parents and children navigating the tumultuous waters of loss, that she penned her first children's book, "Daddy’s Always Near."

"Daddy’s Always Near" is a heartfelt creation born from a place of deep love and resilience. Aiza crafted this touching story to help other parents who have experienced loss show their young children that although a parent may be gone, their presence and support continue to shine through in their life's journey.

Through her writing, Aiza aims to provide comfort and hope, illustrating that love transcends the physical realm and remains a guiding light. Her work is a testament to the enduring power of family bonds and the human spirit’s capacity for healing.
