On a sad note the world lost another great person who I got to know for the last seven years while we shared the same room while being on Dialysis together. Omer was one of those special people who lit up as he talked about his lovely wife and their long marriage who has so much energy and his Son and Daughters and Grandson whom he was so proud of and were always there for him. I will miss him and do as I look over at his chair, our morning talks, but want to thank him and his family for allowing me to be a part of his life, rest in peace my friend as you earned it! - Posted by: Brian & Doreen Graham (Partner on Dialysis at the St.Bonface Hospital) on: Feb 10, 2024
