IN LOVING MEMORY OF EDWARD (6/11/14)
Taken from this world far too soon
Leaving broken hearts here; missing you
I wish I had known; given the chance to say goodbye
Infinite questions only answered with why
Shedding layers of emotion
Tears falling, gently then amply
You always gave me hope and loving advice
I am eternally grateful; you changed my life
A piece of me will forever remain empty
Evermore, I will cherish your memory
You were always there for me
For anyone, in a time of need
Your encouraging words paved the way
To the optimistic person I am now today
You were such an inspiration to all you knew
If I had the chance I would trade places with you

In loving memory of Edward Fares (6/11/14)
Dear Edward,
Thank you for giving me the chance to work with you for nearly three
years at Farouk Systems, Inc. It was an honor to not only know you, the
engineer who made the CHI flat irons and hair dryers, but also to be
your executive assistant. I enjoyed every day I had working in the
office with you as well as going to spend time with you and all the
incredible workers in the factory. I believe God put you in my life for a
reason and I cannot comprehend why you had to leave us all so early in
your life. I know I will see you again in heaven and that will be a
special day for me. I heard from several employees that you were more
like a father figure than a boss to them. I feel the exact same way.
Even though I had to stop working due to my debilitating illness, you
were still there to offer encouraging words of support that got me
through the day. I pray for your family every night. I know how much you
cared for them and loved them unconditionally just by the way you
talked about them. I honestly cannot imagine what they are going through
and I pray their faith remains just as strong as you always were. You
will never be forgotten.
With Love,
Valerie
