[File, Standard]Renowned surgeon and author Yusuf Dawood died in the United Kingdom, aged 94. Upon clocking 90, Dr Dawood and his wife Marie Kodwavwala moved to where their two children resided. As he turned 90, four years ago, Dawood said he was beginning to think of his mortality more than he did in previous years. Upon his arrival in Kenya, Dawood joined the Rotary Club in Nairobi, and among the requirements was for new members to talk about their jobs. Before he went under, the patient told Dawood to inform the Rotarian president, the late John Karmali, that he will not be giving the speech.
