Dear John, Michael, Lisa , "Jordie",Julia and Jacob. We are heart broken for you and all of your family with the loss of your beloved Mother ,Wife, and most importantly your Sitto. We know how important Sittos' are!! Your traditions will always be with you since they were made important to you with all the love she bestowed upon you. So sorry we were unable to be with you at the time when you need the support of friends and family but our children represented us as their hearts are broken as well. May God give you the strength to get through the coming months. Helena and John Yurconic

Dear Nimeh family...
Although I didn't have the pleasure of knowing Mrs. Nimeh well, I am quite familiar with her work--the fruits of her labor. I have had the pleasure of being close friends with Vera (and Chris and now Justin) for almost 10 years, and she has been an angel to me, which is the highest honor and respresentation of the spirit of her mom. Mike, although I haven't been a model patient, you are my doctor and have always been wonderful to work with and talk to. John, I've met you only a couple of times for limited moments, but that's all I needed to realize your soul shines brilliantly. Mr. Nimeh...I met you and Mrs. Nimeh only once or twice that I can recall, but rest assured those brief meetings impressed me far more than knowing others for a lifetime.
Nimeh family...I am deeply sorry for the loss of your matriarch's earthly presence. She will be profoundly missed, but her soul/spirit lives within each of you and shall always remain brilliant and vibrant. As you experience each moment of your life's journey, she will be there. As you all embrace and welcome old and new souls into your family, she will be there. Know with complete certainty that she will be with you...always.
From one soul who genuinely understands this experience to another...hold tight to each other, embrace each moment of every day, and always remember you are never truly alone. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you...no matter how small or large you may think it is.
You all are forever in my thoughts and eternally in my prayers.
Always,
Donna

To One and All,
Please know that I have you all in my thoughts and prayers as you go through this chapter in your lives.
Somedays I think we are meant to get on this computer and check to see if anyone we know has passed back in our hometown.
Well, today was that day. When I saw the name, so many memories flooded my mind and heart.
I used to work for Hessib at the beauty shop many years ago, before packing up and moving to the mountains to live my childhood dream.
I will always remember being accepted as a part of the Jarrah family --- drinking coffee, eating the yummy treats, and being taught to speak Arabic by the girls.
That smile of Sue's would always brighten the shop. How she loved her family, and how proud she was of the accomplishments of her children who I held as babies and loved before I left in 1976.
God bless you all with peace that only He can give.
