I was fortunate to be Ed’s colleague in Saudi Arabia and we became friends during our years together in Jeddah. His warmth and generosity of spirit made a mark on me and, to this day, I am often reminded about Ed would tackle a situation or lift the spirit of a struggling colleague. The years have passed since we lost Ed but his light continues to shine and I remember him fondly.

6 years have gone since Mr. Edward Wess passed away and I still miss him more than I can possibly say, "Rest in peace"!. You are in my thoughts and prayers. May Almighty God place your soul in the best place and shower his mercy. Mohammed Ansari Jeddah, KSA. 1-June-2021

On this Remembrance Day for Ed , let us read together what Gibran Khalil Gibran wrote about death “Oh heart, if one should say to you that the soul perishes like the body, answer that the flower withers, but the seed remains.” Ed left us to go to a better world where there is no wars but piece, no violence but love, no pandemic but normal life. Ed shall remain always in the hearts and thoughts of his family and friends. Toni Khoury April 26, 2020
