I will always remember this kind, brilliant, talented, giving man. I had the privilege of working with him on a non-profit project, but I profited by working with him.

My heartfelt sympathies to the family during this difficult time...May your fondest memories bring you joy and may prayers to the God of all comfort strengthen you.
He promises, "I have heard your prayer. I have seen your tears. I am healing you."
(2 Kings 20:5)

I hope this gets to the right people. I met Muhammad when we were both helping Pat Cooke withe Dorchester Garden Preserves. He has been on my prayer list for many years, and I always email him this time of the year to see how he is doing. I didn't get and answer this year so did a search. How sad I am that the world has lost such a wonderful man. It will be painful not to have him on my Jewish prayer list - he would kid me about that. May he rest in peace.
