Dearest Lilian, Blanche, Barbara, Jean-Pierre, Caroline, Patricia, and Sylvie,

We are very sorry to hear about your loss. Our prayers go out to you and your families.

It was indeed an honor to have had the chance to meet Ammo Emile and to spend some wonderful time with him and with Auntie Barbara at their home in Ottawa. He was a very welcoming and gracious host, and we are sure that he was a great family man and wonderful father.

We are sending you a lot of love at these trying times, and may his soul rest in peace.

With Lots of Love,
Hala, Farid, Maria, and Fouad Yanni
