"They will forever be in my heart!!"

Ms. Rafi Mercedes Texas June 2015

Tony, I know we spoke when I was in Canada and I expressed to you how wonderful our trip was. Also how great your team of Rami, Shiraz, and John were to us. But, I really want to add that they will forever live in my heart. I can still hear their voices as they would call out to us or greet us on and off the bus. I hear Shiraz calling me Azizza and me yelling out Aziz across the parking lots. He gave me an arm to hold when I needed support and listened to me when I wanted to share a thought. Rami was so sweet to educate us with patience and always with a big genuine smile! He made sure we were safe and often helped me and Margaret when we needed to catch our breath or catch up speed with the others. John is such a fun guy and our dance instructor. He's a ball to have around. We love all those guys became a part of our family. My husband and children have been told how Shiraz holds a special place in my heart forever! He is truly my other son, whom I recently discovered. My sons are 46 and 35 years old and I didn't ask Shiraz his age but I feel he could be the middle son for me. I even called him Mijo (son). 

Here's a picture of my children. My daughter is 47, taller one is 35 and the other is 46. Please share it with the guys, especially Shiraz. They are so grateful to him for taking care of their Mom! Many thanks to you Tony for making these pilgrimages possible, for I know how much planning each trip takes. You really keep up with the welfare of your travelers. God bless you and your wonderful family a lot! Give you lovely wife and girls a big hug from me! 😊👍👏

Please tell all the guys a BIG THANK YOU from Ms Rafie!  May Our Lord bless them and protect them from harm always!
