A man of unwavering determination and integrity, Omar was known for his strong work ethic and his willingness to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. He approached life with kindness and generosity.
Omar was never one to stay idle, always eager to explore new ventures. While residing in New Jersey, he dabbled in various pursuits, from owning a restaurant and a boxing gym to indulging in his passion for racing cars.

Embracing the South Florida lifestyle, he ventured into boat racing, relishing weekends in the Keys with loved ones. His love for automobiles extended beyond a hobby, as he eventually opened a car dealership. He was an avid collector of cars and possessed an expert knowledge of all things automotive.
