A Friend and a Brother
Passed Away!
I have a variety of friends who are so different in character;
each can bring out a "different" part of me.
I joke with one friend, but with
another I am reserved.
I sit down and talk about
serious matters with one.
With another I laugh a lot
and I may have a coffee or a drink with one.
I listen to one friend's
problems. Then, I listen to another one's advice.
We all pray together and for
each other.
My friends are all like
pieces of a jigsaw puzzle.
When completed, they form a
treasure box. A treasure of friends!
But only one of them was a
“Complete Friend and Brother.”
He was the friend who understood
me better than myself, who supported me through good days and bad days, and so
I did him too.
He is Ma7mud ElGohary,
Who was a loving husband,
father and grandparent of a wonderful family.
As a player, he was an unstoppable team-player who was ahead
of his times. He pioneered modern football in Egypt and the region.
He was a leader of men who excelled as a professional officer
when he commanded the Second Army Communications and as a coach when he led his
club and National Squads from one victory to another.
He was my “True Friend” and remains until we meet again!
Hale to His Majesty King Abdullah
and HRH Prince Ali and the Jordanian People who recognized his excellence and
honored his memory.
Shame to those Egyptians who
denied him a Military Funeral befitting a Decorated National Hero who served
his country well!
