It is with profound grief and heartbreak that the Mother Language Lovers of the World Society (MLLWS) mourns the tragic and untimely passing of our beloved Director of Research & Development, Dr. Sams Anowar Sadat.
---------------------
Dr. Sadat tragically lost his life on the morning of October 25 after drowning in the Vedder River near Chilliwack. His sudden departure has left a deep void in our hearts and our organization.
---------------------
He was not only a brilliant researcher and scientist at Cytiva, but also a gentle soul — humble, sincere, and always ready to help others. His kindness, humor, wisdom, and dedication to promoting cultural and linguistic diversity will forever be remembered.
---------------------
Dr. Sadat leaves behind his loving wife and two beautiful young children, who were his greatest joy and inspiration. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family as they face this unimaginable loss.
---------------------
His body is currently kept at the Aldergrove Mortuary. The details regarding his Namaj-e-Janaja and final rites will be announced once the autopsy and other necessary procedures are completed. We will share updates as soon as we have them.
