I am sharing with you Rafik´s memory. Always in a good mood, cheerful, compassionate and present in good and bad circumstances. Lucy, Alan, Claude and spouses, be proud of him and continue in his footsteps. Love you all. Cely

Dr. Raphael was the most influential mentor in my career. He was the first physician I worked for, and what I learned from him shaped, not only my career, but my life. He was one of a kind and I am eternally grateful, not only for his mentorship, but for his friendship and the lessons he taught me that reached far beyond the walls of his practice. Rest easy Dr. Raphael, you will never be forgotten.

Thank you all for the kind words. Not a day goes by when I don't think of my Dad... Wanting to call him and tell him how much I miss him. I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to express my love and appreciation for him before his passing... And that he can rest now.

One of a kind, and a true treasure to know. He will always be remembered for his ability to make everyone feel comfortable and happy. May God bless and keep you Dear Lucy, Allen, Claude and family.

A sweet brother-in-law, generous to a fault. It was his way to be kind to everyone.

His humour, his generosity, his optimism and faith in life. A cousin and cousin-in-law that changed sadness into laughter. A guy that put people at ease and ahead of himself. He will always be remembered as a "bon vivant ", from Egypt to the States. Dear Lucy, Allen and Claude, we will always be there for you. Love Cely and family

Beautifully written and heartwarming. I love the photo . It expresses everything about Rafik, warm, kind and mischievous! Thank you Lucy, Allen and Claude.
