Baback Abbas Izadi

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.
Your cousin, Bahram Izadi

I am deeply saddened by the news of Baback's passing, a loss that words can hardly describe. Baback wasn't just a friend; he was a remarkable soul whose kindness and generosity knew no bounds. He embodied the essence of a truly good human being, always putting others before himself. Baback's absence leaves a void that will be profoundly felt by all who had the privilege of knowing him. My heart goes out to his family during this difficult time. He will be dearly missed, but his spirit and the memories we shared will forever hold a special place in our hearts.

I was one of Baback's students when I was an undergrad in the late 90s, and a colleague at the college for the last 20 years (in another department). I don't think I would be where I am in my career without what I learned in his classes, and when he was my senior design advisor.

My thanks to Baback for all he's done for all the students at New Paltz, and for the guidance he gave me when I was a student. My sympathy is with his family and friends for the loss of this great man.

I worked with Baback in the early days of the engineering program and have known him for many years. This is a very sad loss. My thoughts are with his family at this difficult time.

Querido Amigo: We have many memories together, having worked at SUNY New Paltz for 30 years! However, the one that comes to my mind is the wonderful time that we spent in San Diego, attending a conference in preparation for an accreditation visit. You, your wonderful wife, and I had dinner in a hotel patio, enjoying the soft breeze from the ocean. Farewell my friend, we will miss you! Julio
