Cousin Rıfat

September 15, 1982

Mui’s cousin had moved from Turkey to Canada before we were married and made the move to the US.  Though we were planning to visit Rıfat in Vancouver, British Columbia, our first opportunity to spend time with him was when he and his girlfriend (Lorraine) came through SeaTac Airport.

We lost Rıfat to cancer at the young age of 50.  May he rest in peace; or as they would say in Turkey, “Allah rahmet eğlesin” (may Allah grant him mercy).
