I am sorry to have read of Magdi’s passing in the paper. She was a very dear friend of my mother Rose Soos (passed 2004). I always remember her beautiful smiles, warm hugs and thoughtfulness.
She will be forever missed.
We send our deepest sympathies to the family.
We were shocked and saddened to see that Maria had passed away. What a blow to me and my family, as it surly was to the many other people who like us, looked forward to being served by such a wonderful and warm person at the pharmacy. We will miss her radiant smile and caring personality.
To Maria’s family and coworkers, please accept our deepest sympathies.
This world has lost a wonderful person.I had the pleasure of being in the same store with Magdi for many years and I always marvelled at her ability to affect everyone she met including myself with that wonderful,vibrant and caring personality that she had.She was definitely one of a kind.We are all the poorer for her passing.
