Obituary of May Bou-Ayache

It is with great memories of her grand and generous spirit that we must sadly announce the passing of May Bou-Ayache on February 28, 2020 in Toronto with family and friends by her side. May was born in Baakline, Lebanon on September 17, 1935. Loving wife of Said Abu-Salman (predeceased), she will be deeply missed by her daughters Hana and Lina and her sons Walid and Rami and by her seven grandchildren Jad, Dima, Rami, Toufic, Alia, Rawi , and Zad. In lieu of flowers, donations in memory of May would be appreciated to Michael Garron Hospital Foundation and/or the Toronto Chapter of the Canadian Druze Society.“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 theriver 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.”Khalil Gibran, The Prophet
