My heart fell heavy when I opened an e-mail the evening of Jan 3. It was just that morning that I commented to Dr Brink here in Kamloops about what Dr Wahba used to always tell me. Dr Wahba was a model of a perfect doctor and I have compared everyone since to him. May the angels in heaven look after him as he looked after me and my children.

Susan, Mark, Andrew and Deena. Our thoughts are with you and Yosri during this most difficult time of Yosri's death. Although we have been gone from Estevan for many years - since 1977 - we still remember taking Jason and Kristin to see "Mark's daddy" when they were ill. Our favourite memory is how our family and yours were trying to coordinate the delivery of Andrew and Kristin on the same day when caregiver plans were falling apart. Luckily the babies cooperated too making Andrew one day older than Kristin. A friend of ours was seen by Mark at Regina General last year. Al and I both commented how Mark would be a compassionate professional becasue of lessons learned from both his parents. Our thoughts are with you.

It is with great sorrow to hear about the loss of a wonderful man. He has done so much for so many people. He was the best doctor, caring. I would not be here if it wasn't for him. I had a long and trying battle when I was sick but he was always there. He will be sadly missed by all. You're in my prayers. I think of him often!! God Bless!

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your children at this time. Dr. Wahba was a wonderful doctor and will be missed very much by all that knew him. When my children were small, they loved going to see Dr. Baba (they couldn't say Wahba) because he always gave you suckers they said. Once again, your family is in our prayers

Mrs. Wahba and Family

It is with great saddness that we hear of your loss of Dr. Wahba.He was a great man, a gentle man, aloving father and husband. We had many talks and it was always a great please to see how well he knew his profession. Jason and Garett would not be here without his help, nor would Glennda be here if his talented hands had not been doing their magic.

He loved his community, his kids as they grew and we remember having him ride with us to a Basketball Tournament once in our 1980 Caprice Classic. We found him easy to talk to on a social level and also he had quite a sense of humor.

We would like to let you know that we share your sorrow at this time.
In Caring and Sharing
Glennda, Barry, Jason,Amy, Garett and Carolyn

We are so sorry.
