May God support us all the day long,
till the shades lengthen and the evening comes,
and the busy world is hushed,
and the fever of life is over, and our work is done.
Then in His mercy may He give us a safe lodging,
and a holy rest and peace at the last.
-Cardinal Newman

Dear Amal, Jack, Susan, Violet, and Sylvia,
We were so saddened to hear the news of Phoebes passing. We will miss her terribly. While we have always been on the other side of the globe, we stayed in contact with Phoebe and always loved hearing your news. We have great memories from when we first visited Buffalo in 1965 and then again during the times we visited Maryland. Phoebe was always kind, considerate, pleasant and easy to get along with. GOD REST HER SOUL IN PEACE. Our condolences to you all and God be with you as you go through this hard time.
Sending our love,
Jamil and Dorothy Ziadeh

Dear Jacob, Amal, Susan, Violet, Ulrich, and Sylvia, and all your beloved families, I am so sorry for the loss of my beloved sister Phoebe. It was a shocking news to hear about the passing of my sister as I talked to her two-days ago. Although I am sadly far away from you where such distancing keep us all far apart in this globe but all my thoughts are with you all in such tragic moments . Our sincerest condolences from me, George, Nassar , Manal and all my family to you all. Phoebe was a very special caring mother and a unique sister whom will be very much missed by many. Sending my sincerest prayers to you and God bless you, your families and all your beloved ones. I am sure that Phoebe is up there in a better place with her blessed soul surrounding us all and she is reunited with my sister Georgette and my brother George. We will miss them all . God bless her soul and keep you all safe.
