Adnan was first a man who adored his wife and family, and only then a well repected and successful hydrological engineer and businessman.
We will miss his "gagas", laughing over a dinner table stacked high with Chinese food cartons so generously shared, as with everything, at his welcoming dinner table, and one special phone call received a few years ago that let his sister-in-law know that she was much appreciated.
We will miss him.

I knew Baba from being best friends with his oldest daugter, Dina, since High School. Although not a man of many words he always had a twinkle in his eye and a warm hug for those close to him. I am deeply saddened by his sudden departure and I hope Ann, Dina, Rhonda, Tarek and Laura will find the strength within each other to remember the good times and celebrate future memories in his honour.
I love you all.

I knew Baba from growing up with Dina in HS. I've known the Saad's for 15 years and you could always tell how proud Baba was of his family. He was such a great man and a wonderful father. He would always make me feel welcome and like part of the family. He will truly be missed by me and my family. I'm so sorry for your loss. God bless!! Love, Jennifer

My thoughts are with Dr Saad's whole family as you help each other to come to terms with the sudden loss of this much loved and special man. He would want you all to make the most of every day and every moment together.

I didn't know Baba personally, but I consider his daughter, Rhonda, one of my very dear friends, and I know him through the amazing things that Rhonda has told me about him and knowing Rhonda herself, who is an exceptionally intelligent, kind, and wonderful woman. I hope he is at peace and looks over us all through the years to come. I'm certain he is looking over his daughter Rhonda and is shining with pride and joy at the amazing woman she has become.
