As a child growing up as a refugee in Uganda, Roshan Thomas said she relied on her Ismaili Muslim spiritual leader for her education, health care and well-being.

On the eve of the Aga Khan’s golden jubilee, Thomas said, she feels it is important to look back with gratitude.

“Everything I am stems from what this imam and his predecessor did for me,” said Thomas, in an interview from her Vancouver home. “For me, it’s a time of reflection.”
