The Abdussalam and Bugaighis families wish to thank all those who participated in the funeral of Dr. Abdelrahim Saleh Abdussalam, and those who telephoned to send their condolences. We do apologize for not sending personal thanks due to the large number of callers and participants in the funeral (the number of telephone calls exceeded 1000.)

We wish to offer assistance to those who are planning to attend in person the 40th day since Abdelrahim passed away. We need to be informed of your planned attendance to obtain cheaper group rates at local hotels and to make other arrangements to ensure your comfort.
