Early Saturday morning, and Sheikh Abdulhameed Mofarrij has just called me from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to tell me that his brother, my ex-boss, Sheikh Abdulghani Abdulraheem Mofarrij, died about five years ago of a sudden heart attack. No wonder my letters and cards to PO Box 1337, Jeddah 21431, had remained unanswered.
I am truly, truly sorry!
Abdulghani was more than my boss: he was a very kind and very gentle man - a gentleman, no less - and, I would like to think, I was also his friend!
I will always remember you, Abdulghani! Rest in peace!
