Mohammed Nasim Obituary

Mohammed Nasim, 90, passed away April 23, 2025, surrounded by his loving family. A native of Lahore, Pakistan, son of the late Mir Abdul and Bebe Rahim, he earned his master's degree from Clemson Agricultural College of South Carolina and retired after 30 years of service as an engineering professor at Greenville Technical College. He was a member of Taylors First Baptist Church. He had a love for tennis. In his career he played at Wimbledon, the French Open, the World University Championships, and was the first tennis scholarship ever at Clemson. He loved to travel the world with his wife, and made so many lasting memories. Most of all, he loved his family and being with them. He lived a sacrificial life, always thought of others first, and anyone who ever met him loved him. He was a kind and gentle man. In a world where priorities were out of order, he remained true. He loved the Lord with all his heart, he was faithful to his wife of almost 66 years, and absolutely adored his children and grandchildren with everything in him.
