Dear Samer,
Your remembrance of your father really seemed to capture the nature of Abu Maher. One of my most vivid memories was of one of my first iftars that I enjoyed at your parent's house. We listened to your father's detailed explanation (probably from one of my naive questions) of where food from this region originated. Every time I met him he always reminded me of how many times

My sincerest condolences. You've honoured your father beautifully. The fact that your family has been brought back together reaffirms my belief that everything happens for a reason.

A very touching eulogy.

Allah Yerham Abu Maher.

You've obviously inherited his abilities of expression.

May God give your mother and the rest of the family patience in this difficult time.

Samer,

I, too, have very fond memories of the brief times I spent with your father. He was, indeed, a very unique and interesting person - so passionate about life. He seemed to enjoy every moment to its fullest.

He truly seemed interested in each and every person with whom he came in contact. Not in a perfunctory way - he was genuinely a scholar of people. It was a pleasure

Samer, this is such a beautiful eulogy to Abu Maher, an amazing man, who lead an amazing life, and who I had the privilege of meeting. There is no one else in my life, who I spent so little time with, but can recall in my mind clearly -- every conversation, every interaction, and nearly every laugh. I remember driving with Abu Maher in Boston, on your wedding, and listening to his fascinating

He sounds like the type of dad many dream of having. It's wonderful that you two shared a unique closeness that so few experience. May you find comfort in all the wonderful memories of your dad. This post definitely is a wonderful tribute to him and I am sure he's smiling down smiling and very proud of his son.

My sincere condolences in your whole family's loss, Samer and Amanda. May God comfort you as you mourn, and as one who also has lost a father, will pray for you.

I had just wondered yesterday where you two had been, no posts in so long.

Samer so about your father he sounds like a great man. Reading your blog on his love for books and his love of History reminded me of my dad who also past but back in 1989. He was a Biologist but loved to read and bought so many books that we had hundreds of them. It made me think of my dad and I just wanted to say My thoughts are with you and your family.
