PITTSBURGH — Ahmir Tuli was laid to rest Saturday after he was shot and killed outside his mother’s bar in the Strip District.
Tuli’s mother wants him to be remembered by his soft smile and his kind eyes. She wrote a letter that was read aloud during a service at Calvary Baptist Church.
“Ahmir was a true friend to his friends, ready and willing at a moment’s notice, always willing to go the extra mile to make someone smile. His hearty laugh brought his whole house alive,” the letter said.
