A man had to identify the bodies of his wife and young daughters on his birthday after they died in a house fire last week. Aboubacarr Drammeh, who turned 40 on Wednesday, spent his birthday in the hospital mortuary.
He paid tribute to wife of eight years, Fatoumatta Hydara, and their daughters Fatimah and Naeemah Drammeh, aged three and one, who all died from smoke inhalation following a blaze at their first-floor flat in Fairisle Close, Clifton, Nottingham, in the early hours of Sunday.
In a statement, Mr Drammeh described the past week as the "hardest" of his life and said he would never get over spending part of his birthday in the hospital mortuary. He said: "I had to go in there and see the bodies. That was just so hard."
Mr Drammeh was in the process of securing visas for his family to join him in Minnesota, in the US, where he works as a biomedical technologist. "That's not going to happen now and I can't understand why," he said.
After being informed of the tragic incident at 5am, he went straight to the airport to fly back to the UK. "I've done that journey so many times, but all the other times it's been exciting because I was going to see my family.
"This time around - I still can't recall it. It's just a blur."
Mr Drammeh described his wife as a "very faithful person", who was "caring" and would help "whoever she could". He said of his children: "They were both really happy children. They loved spending time with their grandparents and got along really well as siblings."
Dawda Dibba, 44, Fatoumatta's uncle, said: "She was an incredible person with incredible passion. She was someone who cared a lot about people.
