In Rememberance

In rememberance of Erhan's father, I would like to reserve an area on this blog for him. I know that it is such a small gesture for such a wonderful man--as I had only met him once, yet I miss him immensely--and will not forget him. Just from one meeting I saw that he loved his family so much, and through everything remained a very strong person. He was so jovial and quite humerous, he really warmed the whole place! I remember him hugging his children with such love, and always watching from the window whenever we left the house...

Erhan had accomplished a great feat in the name of his father---a rigorous triathlon, which he had to raise money for, for a very important cause -- to find a cure for cancer. I as well as others are so proud of you Erhan for being such a loyal, caring, and passionate peron/son/brother/friend/boyfriend. This triathlon you accomplished will benefit others who suffer this disease.
Please see the entry and images below of Erhan's hardwork in this Triathlon.

All prayers and thoughts are with you and the family back in France. I believe that Monsieur Ilhan lives on in STRONG, strong spirit, still within the hearts of his dear ones...and to end this entry in the blog I found this relavent and touching quote:

To live in the hearts we leave behind is not to die.
