In loving memory of a wonderful friend, actor and colleague. He was always such a gentle man with a fabulous sense of humor who always seemed to love the joy in life. He will be greatly missed. My condolences to his family and many friends.

He was one of the first DC actors to embrace my work as a playwright and I had the great honor of playing his daughter in Hotel Universe - a play full of dear friends, and also the play where he earned out nickname for him, "Omar".
