Professor Flamure Ibrahimi-Sadiku was born on July 23, 1977, in Tetovo. She completed her primary and secondary education in Tetovo. She pursued her undergraduate studies at the University of Tetova, graduating in 2001 as one of the first students of the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics, with a focus on Mathematics. She obtained her Master’s degree in 2008 from the University of Prishtina, and in 2015, she completed her PhD. at the Polytechnic University of Tirana. In 2001, she began working as a mathematics professor at the High School “Kiril Pejçinoviq” in Tetovo, while simultaneously engaging as an assistant at the University of Tetova starting in 2002. In 2006, she became a regular assistant professor. In 2015, she received the academic title of Docent, and in 2020, she was awarded the title of Associate Professor. She published over 20 scientific studies, university textbooks, and reviews in the fields of Algebra and Geometry. She participated in numerous scientific conferences both in the region and internationally. She made an invaluable contribution as a teacher, as the head of the Mathematics program, and as a member of the Senate of the University of Tetova. As a result of her exceptional contributions in research, science, and teaching, in 2024, the President of the Senate, Prof. Dr. Vullnet Ameti, awarded her the University of Tetova logo in recognition of her selfless contributions and outstanding merits in research-scientific work and in teaching”. – emphasized Prof. Dr. Florinda Muhaxhiri-Imeri.

He expressed that her loss is a heavy one, not only for her family but also for all of us who had the privilege of knowing her. “Myself, along with many other colleagues from the University of Prishtina, had the fortune of knowing Flamure closely since 1996, when we began teaching as external collaborators at the University of Tetova.
In the name of the Sadiku family, a word of remembrance was delivered by the son of the deceased, Beqir Sadiku. “Today, more than ever, I feel deeply saddened as we remember the virtues of my mother. She was an extraordinary person, calm and determined, with a spirit that illuminated every step she took. As a professor, she brought positive energy to every classroom, touching the hearts of many students. As an academic enriched with scientific titles earned through hard work and knowledge, and as a deserving scholar who published numerous papers and books in the field of mathematics. Believe me when I say that my mother always wanted to dedicate herself fully to her work, to make my grandfather proud. Now, standing before you, I see that she achieved this goal in her life. I promise, mom, that I will always try to follow in your footsteps and I hope I will make you proud. So, it remains for all of us to fulfill her desire and commitment to spread more positivity, love for work, and for her students to continue spreading knowledge and love for the subject of mathematics. Condolences to everyone, and let us pray that mom will be an angel for all of us, both in this world and the next. We will meet in paradise, mom! Glory”! – emphasized Beqir Sadiku.
