I was lucky enough to hang out with Feras a month or so ago in Mobile. He has been everyone one of our best friends for over a decade now. Thank you for raising one of the best guys I have ever met. 

Dear Awad Family,
Profound sadness for your loss. We think fondly of our Altamont days and are here for you all during this most difficult time.

With sympathy,

The Mannon Family
Ellie and Olivia
Roz and Peter

My husband and I both thought of Feras as our little brother. He always brought such a smile to my face and had the most joyous open energy. He was the most excited person whenever we saw each other and made me feel so special. We will miss you dearly Feras.

Love,
Maggie King and Dixon Johns 

Dear Awad family,

I am so sorry for your loss. I know words may do little to ease your pain but I know the whole community stands with you in support. Feras was so kind and generous to me and I remember that he was always the first person to find the positive in things. His spirit was infectious and our friend group (and track team) were incredibly lucky to have him. I am grateful to have had the chance to catch up with him a couple of weeks ago, and though much time had passed since we had last talked, he was still the same Feras. He was warm, generous, funny, and always extending an invitation to meet up when we both were in the same place next. I am incredibly sad I won’t get that opportunity but I know he is in a better place and I hope you know that he was loved and appreciated. 

Dear Maha, Khalil, Elias and Shadi,

I was so incredibly sad and stunned to hear of Feras' passing. I can't imagine  how difficult this moment must be for your family and wish I'd been able to make it back to Birmingham to pay my respects.  

Your son and brother was a really good guy. There were occasions during high school when he extended kindness to me when I really needed it and, for that, I am really in his debt. As I've been thinking about him, I recall so many moments of goofing around together, but I have this one really strong memory of the state track meet in 2011 (I believe) that always stuck with me.  I can't remember the particulars of why, but he was disqualified from the final heat of the 800m, which he and I both ran.  I remember feeling so indignant because he was robbed. He was really good and had a real shot at winning state.  When that final heat came, he was watching at the finish line, and as I finished the lap 1 of 2 trailing the frontrunner, I pointed at him as my way of saying "I'm going to try my hardest for you". I remember gritting my teeth and trying my hardest but not catching the leader. I came up to him afterward and he told me "You don't do that at state."  I was surprised at first but really came to respect him for that.  I think he so often got painted as "the funny guy," and I thought that really sold him short.  I knew firsthand how painful that event was and he worked so hard to be great and he was. Feras will always have my respect and a great deal of affection. 

Wishing you and your family peace,
Kees DeVos

Captured in 2018 during a sacred moment at the Basilica of Jesus the Adolescent in Nazareth, this photo holds a special place in our hearts. Feras, as the chosen best man, stands in the background, a testament to the close bond shared. His presence that day, his joy, and his spirit remain an irreplaceable part of our family memories.

Deepest. Condolescences to awad. Family.  So sorry to hear this. Thinking of all family members

Thoughts and Prayers are with the family.  May his memory be eternal ☦️🙏 

Feras was such a loving and kind person. I’ll never forget my time with him at Altamont and how much he made me laugh. He had a glorious spirit and I always felt uplifted after speaking with him and spending time with him. I’m praying for him and the Awad family. 

Taken 20 years ago in Egypt, this photo captures a fearless adventure on this motor. I, in the driver's seat, Feras behind me, we navigated the desert terrain, losing sight of our guide. Despite my fear, I pressed on, driven by Feras's joy. It's a memory to keep.

This picture brings back vivid memories of a joyous day - my wedding. Feras was ready, dressed impeccably and smiling radiantly. After the wedding, he told me how much he enjoyed the day. Those words, reflecting his sheer happiness and love for family, are a treasured memory. He always made our gatherings brighter with his presence, and his absence is deeply felt.

Unbelievably heart broken! Feras always had a smile on his face when we saw him in the neighborhood. Praying for you and your family!
