Aiche immigrated to Canada from Lebanon in 1961 and married her one and true love Kassem in 1965 and they were married for over 50 years.
Working side by side with her husband they raised six children together and built a beautiful life. They ran several restaurants and were the pillars of the community. Aiche took extreme pride in her children and grandchildren, they always came first.
Aiche was loved by many people in the community and her infectious laugh and a very subtle sense of humor would draw many laughs. She loved to sing, dance, cook, and offer a helping hand whenever needed.
She will forever be missed for her generous heart, community pride, nurturing and sense of family pride. If you knew Aiche, you loved her and you knew she loved you right back.
If you or someone you know is showing signs of Dementia/Alzheimer’s in Aiches memory please take the time to talk to your doctor.
