Not sure what to say?

I think of you, my dear professor, often. Your legacy lives on in all of us.

Professor Said continues to be in my mind and heart and I think of him often. When I am struggling with something I think about what advice he might give me. He was always spot on with his counsel. I continue to miss him to this day. His memory is indeed a blessing.

I am reminded of the many lessons he taught me and my classmates. He is always part of us and what we do and that are forever indebted to him.

Those of us who have had the privilege to study under Professor are forever grateful. His life is an example for all us to follow. Alway courteous, understanding, a kind word and a willing ear to all no matter what their station in life. His mantra of Peace lives in all who knew him and those who only know of him.
