The uncle that always remembered us with love and affection in spite of the geographical separation between us.

Dear Magda and Etta - I am so sorry for your loss. I met Sadek in 1996 when I worked at ACDI-VOCA where he was a volunteer. We stayed in touch over the years but not often enough. He was such a beautiful and loving soul. I feel privileged to have known him. I loved hearing his stories even if I had heard then 10 times. The twinkle in his eyes and the smile on his face always gave them new life. I will miss him dearly.

I remember when Mr. & Mrs. Ayoub would take me, Magda & my brother Jeff to the swimming pool alot. It was a long drive and an all day event. They would always take care of other children and us too. I'm glad to still be in contact w/ Magda since knowing her from kindergarden. Rest in Peace Mr. Ayoub! You will be missed. Love and Peace to the family! Love you.

As a teen I always enjoyed hanging out at the Ayoub's house. It was nice especially when Sadek would get up and make pancakes for us. We'll greatly miss him. He was always kind to me and my family.
