Prof Rogayah bt Jaafar (1955-2016) Dept of Medical Education School of Medical Sciences Universiti Sains Malaysia |
It is with great sadness that I post here on the demise of my colleague, Prof Rogayah Jaafar. I knew her since June 1982 when I joined the USM Medical School. Prof Rogayah was from Johor. She was born on 8 January 1955. She headed the Department of Medical Education. She retired at 58.
She was admitted to Hospital USM on 10 January 2016 and passed away earlier this morning. She passed away on Thursday, 28 January 2016, 30 minutes after midnight. She was 61 when she passed away.
She leaves behind her husband, Prof Zulkifli Ahmad (Community Medicine USM Medical School & USM Dental School Research Deputy Dean), and 5 children - eldest boy and 4 girls.
Her daughters and husband were present at the mortuary where staff could pay their last respect. Her son was on his way to HUSM. I met the family members except her son.
She will be interred at the Muslim burial site at Kg Baung Bayam, near Cherang. I don't know the burial place.
The following pics were obtained from the Internet. They are not mine. They belong to USM.
