Mr. Khoury was one of the finest Orthodox Christians that I ever met. He always made a point to seek me out and greet me when I first joined the church in Cedar Park and he always had a kind word or friendly thought to share with myself or one of my grandchildren. I will miss him greatly. Subdeacon Thomas Wilson

Jiddo was a wonderful grandfather and great grandfather to my sons Jonathan and Jordan. They absolutely adored him and loved to tell him all the things they were learning and doing.

He will be missed and remembered so fondly. We wish him a fast passage to heaven where he can be with Siti again.

Al was one of the finest men I've ever known. He was loving and generous to all who knew him and he was the best grandfather to my children; they adored him and I pray his memory will be eternal.May he rest in peace.
