Though you may no longer be with us, you will always remain alive in my heart.

You were a true friend, and I am forever grateful for the time we spent together.
Thank you for all the lessons you taught me and for being a source of strength and encouragement in my life.
Rest in peace, my dear friend.
Sincerely,
Danny

Khoder, it's been a while since I messaged but my thoughts are still with you and the family.
However, I do know that some things will never be forgotten.
So you'll be pleased to know I'm still not half-pregnant

Three years have gone by but it feels like just yesterday that you were with us.
Of course you are most missed on the golf course. I cannot imagine how happy you would have been playing the Domaine Imperial course. Having retired you would have played at least 7 times a week! I will always miss that confidence of ‘I have got it all figured out now, watch me play today’ which even Tiger Woods would be hesitant to proclaim.
You remain with me always, my brother and my friend.

Hi Khoder. I went yesterday to your grave for a quick salut. Prangins is always a charming village.

A beautiful poem by David Harkins - thank you Reno for having shared this with me.
"He is gone
You can shed tears that he is gone
Or you can smile because he has lived
You can close your eyes and pray that he will come back
Or you can open your eyes and see all that he has left
Your heart can be empty because you can’t see him
Or you can be full of the love that you shared
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday
Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday
You can remember him and only that he is gone
Or you can cherish his memory and let it live on
You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back
Or you can do what he would want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on."

Khodar was a jolly good fellow. He was God's good man, a good soul. In the last year, I learnt so much about Golf and other things in life from him. He shared his knowledge without hesitation. Will very much miss him. May his soul rest in eternal peace.

I have known Khoder for almost 40 years. Apart from being colleagues we became very close through the years before unfortunately our professional lives separated us for fifteen years. I cannot say about Khoder better than it was written by those who preceded me.
Khoder, you will always stay in my heart and I will never forget our good memories in Lebanon, Oman and France.
Rest in peace my friend.
My prayers are with your family and I would like to share these few verses of our Lebanese poet Gibran Khalil Gibran.
“For what is it to die but to stand naked in the wind and to melt into the sun?
And what is it to cease breathing but to free the breath from its restless tides that it may rise and expand and seek God unencumbered?
Only when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing.
And when you have reached the mountaintop, then you shall begin to climb.
And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance.”

I have known Khoder since the day i joined SITA (about 3 yrs ago). I had the opportunity to work very closely with him during the past 1 year. I will never forget his kindness. He was my mentor, my guide. May God give him eternal rest and the family the strength to bear the great pain.

Khoder was a vibrant soul, one who literally lit up the room whenever and wherever he entered. He was so much full of joy.
The get-togethers were always so friendly and bonding that even though we had met in the recent past years, it gave a feeling like having known him since ages.
We will always remember Khoder in our thoughts and prayers.

In memory of Khoder a bright and charming man. Your joy and humor is missed. I thank you for the memories of playing tennis together and how we laughed when you had "tennis elbow". You always had good advice and words of wisdom that I still remember. I am sure you are now imparting these in a better place. Peace be with you.

Khoder, you have been my manager for 7 years and I have learnt a lot from you. I still remember your 2 most famous expressions : "the most beautiful lady in the world cannot give more than she has" and " you want the cow and the milk of the cow and the cream of the milk of the cow" . Regardless of being my manager, we had this nice friendship and all the travels and missions we went on with you. You will be missed.

There may not be a better legacy that one can have in this world. Thank you Khoder, it was a privilege and a pleasure being your colleague for almost 30 years. Rene

Golf Partner
March 2, 2018
by George Ross
Khoder and I were in a golf match as partners to play another 2.
I met friends for lunch before and had a beer too many.
I got a lift and turned up just before tee off and had no time to practice. He was furious and instructed me never do this to me again.
My game did suffer and I was very bad for the first nine holes. He was playing well and kept us in the game.
At hole 10 he said I’d better improve.
I did marginally, but he was still scoring more points than me. We were 1 hole down with 2 to play.
I then won the last 2 holes and we won. I expected some praise from my partner, but he just repeated. Never do this to me again, we were lucky. I never did, as I was sure he meant it.
The next time we played partners together, he booked the tee off for 14:00, but told me it was at 13:00. I was there at 12:00 to keep him happy and missed lunch.
Heads will roll !
March 2, 2018
The first time I met Khoder I was standing by my boss, Camilo, who reported to Khoder as SEMEA Operations Mgr...... Khoder said in that call: "the next time there is a P1 Incident and you don´t call me in 1 hour, heads will roll !!" - Sir, yes Sir we all said !!! He always wanted to be in the face of the problems, never hided behind his title and seniority, he was another soldier in the battle field, passionate about doing things right.
