UPDATED: Young man dies in car accident on Goodwill Road (see photos)

Twenty-six-year-old Neil Karam of Roseau is dead following a vehicular accident on the Goodwill Road in the early hours of Wednesday morning.

While Police Public Relations Officer Inspector Claude Weekes was unable to confirm the actual cause of the accident, he told Dominica News Online that he believed the Toyota  Celica GT-Four car, which Karam was a passenger in, was being driven quickly.

“At the time of the accident the car was being driven in a southerly direction on the Goodwill Public Road within close proximity of the Public Works Department. According to traffic investigators, the car is believed to have struck one of the light poles, reducing it to a total wreck,” the police PRO explained.

Karam was pronounced dead at the Casualty Department of the Princess Margaret Hospital during the “small hours of the morning”, Weekes said.

Twenty-three-year-old Clinton Titre, the owner and driver of the vehicle, sustained multiple bodily injuries and is currently a patient at the Alford Ward of the Princess Margaret Hospital.

Inspector Weekes said an autopsy will be performed and coroner’s inquest will be convened, as investigations continue.

    I WOULD LIKE EACH OF US TO PUT OURSELVES IN THE SHOES OF CLINTON. NO ONE WANTS TO KNOW THEIR BEST FRIEND DIES IN A CAR ACCIDENT WHERE THEY WERE DRIVING. COME ON. I FEEL CLINTON’S PAIN. HE ALSO HAS LOST HIS FRIEND. I WILL PRAY FOR YOU CLINTON, CAUSE I KNOW YOUR HEART WILL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN. GOD SPEED AND ALL THE BEST TO YOU. SEEK YOUR COMFORT IN THE LORD AS GOD HEALS YOU AND BRINGS YOU BACK TO GOOD HEALTH.

    TO THE KARAM FAMILY: MY DEEPEST SYMPATHIES GO OUT TO YOU. NO WORDS CAN COMFORT YOU AT THIS TIME OF YOUR BEREAVEMENT. SUDDEN DEATH ESPECIALLY SO TRAGIC IS NEVER EASY TO TAKE. I CAN IMAGINE HOW CONFUSED AND EMPTY YOU MAY BE FEELING. SEEK YOUR COMFORT IN THE LORD, FOR HE IS THE MASTER OF OUR LIVES. HE KNOWS AND SEES ALL. STAY CLOSE AS A FAMILY TO ONE ANOTHER, AND YOU WILL GAIN YOUR STRENGTH FROM EACH OTHER. FAMILY IS IMPORTANT. I WILL CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR THE FAMILY AS YOU TAKE EACH DAY AS IT COMES. GOD BLESS YOU ALL.

    Dear Neil
    I hope you are now at peace and can now look down on your family and guide and or protect them. I hope that you will also look down on motorists who decide to accelerate at the wrong time. I hope your family may at one time find peace and that they not look to the disaster of your death but to the new light that they have their own angel guiding and caring for them in the world unseen only you know what your location looks like I wish you a peaceful rest. And your family the comfort God gives. Karam family keep strong and remember your Son for what he was and remember Neil was always a people’s man. A joyous soul to be around all who met him was entranced by his majestical abilities.

    RIP Neil

    R.I.P Neil, at first I didn’t realize who it was but when I came through, it felt like a part of me just froze. I remember Neil from town back in my college days, always waved hi, very pleasant person. Heartfelt condolences to the entire Karam Family. I know what it feels like to lose a love one, take comfort in knowing that Neil is in a better place.

    To all the motorists out there, take it easy….. We only live once.

    January 3, 2010

    it is so sad to have had to see you go this way. it is only now i could bring myself to actually say something. i didnt know you for long but i remember the first day u walked into our training class at marpin. for the little time that i knew you i admired you secretly. you were a great person and i pray that u are in a better place. up to the day that u died u were still making jokes with us. just a laid back fella. i remember in the IT room the week before when we were watching all those videos from the christmas party boy we had some laughs. you were a great colleague neil and we at clear harbor will miss you alot. so many people could not function on wednesday i couldnt even sleep. till we meet again my friend with love from one of ur colleagues.

    PS: TO THE KARAM FAMILY.

    u had a great son, brother, cousin, friend and i know that it is not easy going through but god will see you through because he always takes care of his children and he will never allow you to go through anything that he know u cant handle. to his mom and dad i pray a special prayer for you. just stay strong in the lord and he will take care of you.

    ONCE AGAIN REST IN PEACE NEIL: YES FADA

    January 3, 2010

    i didnt know neil personally. i knew who he was….one of the cute guys that all the girls was crushing on. i always knew that he was a nice person though. god bless his soul…he must be in one of the good places reserved for angels up there. i went to the store one day where his family is and my friend showed him to me..since i wanted to kno who the neil she was talkin about soooo much was. i was steering at him…and he saw me. :-O. being extremely shy i immediately felt embarassed and went red…he walked towards us..since he was leaving…smiled and said hi. he didnt know us but he was kind to us anyway. didnt let his good looks go to his head…he striked me as one of the down to earth good guys. i know that he will be missed by his friends and family. god will help you guys get through this. its never fair when we die young…never is..we will never understand it, but it happens to the best of us…neil may u light up heaven with your smile and kind ways…look over your family and guide them through these difficult times…stay with them…because losing u is no easy task…hold their hands…help them to understand. i guess god needed u and called upon u. they surely have a guardian angel watchin over them now. kisses and much love.

LOL..i also remeber clearly when u told me that someone broke the glass of ur car and u do not want to know who did it, as someone had mentioned to u that a HAITIAN could tell u who did it..but ur response was u do not believe in eveil and it was only material stuffs. thats the voice of a true hero..
    we will surely miss u cause u always tend to fix our problems.. i know ur watchin down on us as we pray with ur family, friends and enemies..

  19. never can say goodbye
    January 1, 2010

    my sprit is sad and my heart is broken…..my mind is still trying to understand how someone could be gone so quickly. one afternoon having a normal conversation,thinking i’ll tell him tomorrow (like it’s a guaruntee) and then with no warning, no indication of what is to come they’re gone. and it’s not a joke and they’re not just on another island or something,but they’re really just gone. not coming back and u dont have the opportunity to say ‘neil good bye’….’i will miss you FOR REAL’ …and ‘i really think u’re special’..
    to the karam’s, u raised a real prince, u have every reason to be proud. always remember romans 8:28 ALL things work together for good.. neil is gone but know that he will NEVER be forgotten.

    I Would like to extend my heartfelt condolences to the Karam family on the sudden passing of their beloved Neil. This is so tragic. When I read the story my mind automatically went on Neil’s parents. My thoughts and prayers are with the family. No family should go through such a tragedy especially at this time of year. Words cannot pacify the hurt you must feel, but with God’s mercy and grace he will see you through. One day at a time. I want to especially say to Neil’s brother Nigel, whom I went to school with, his sister Nicole and his cousin tammy who I knew as well to hold strong. Another one of our promising young men has left us. Now allow him to be your ANGEL.May Neil rest in peace.

    I would like to send a word of caution to ALL drivers, please please, slow down. Take your time on the road.

    Its really hard to loose a Loved One, especially through sudden death. I lost My Dear Sister in 2002, and though Her passing was expected, it was still dreadfully painful to lose a Loved One at such a tender age as 31 yrs. Neils passing was unexpected, and its even harder to bare losing a loved one unexpectedly, and at such a tender age as-well. Losing a Loved One by sickness is so hard to bare, we can’t imagine how a family must feel losing a Loved One so suddenly, and so unexpectedly. Death is so painful, and Your lost can never fade away, until the day You die. Death is a hard player, and death has no face. But remember all the Countless Joyful times with Neil. Your lost is Great, and very painful, family, and friends of Neil, but the Good Lord Will sustain You, and the Hope that He has Promised will Strengthen You in this trying time. Let Go, and Let God, though this is hard to do, but God is with Us all. My Sympathy goes out to the Karam Family, and to all the friends of Neil. May his soul Rest in Peace.

    P.S.
    Clinton You made it this far, You can’t give up now. One lost is already to great, We can’t lose You too. Continue the fight for Your life, and pull through this. You and Your Family are in My Prayers. I can’t believe We spoke that afternoon, and just after midnight, One of Our friends giving Me a shocking phone call about you being in a fatal accident. I frooze at My P.C. I was at work at the hospital when the Ambulance arrived, and was relieved to see You fully alert and even assisting the ambulance and hospital staff in aiding Neil. This gave Me Hope. Hold strong Padna, and win the fight, for Your life, this will be your greatest victory.

    Deepest and heartfelt condolonces to both families. Its sad to see that the year had to come with such a great loss of a young mind and spirit. To those who remember him NEIL shall be sorely missed and always remembered. Though Clinton is not so unfortunate he shall always live with this in his heart and mind and my heart goes out to him and his family. To all motorist and pedestrians alike in Dominica please let this be a reminder that as always an accident does not give warning or reservation so please respect the roadways and the vehicles that occupy them. Best wishes and Happy New Year to all

    a verse from a song i always heard him playing at his PC in the it room:
    ‘Many times i have to fall on my knees and pray. My people being robbed and killed for material things. yes. brain washing and plagarizing. is they for real? i man i’m not gonna fight dem wars for no territory. The only thing i am fighting for is to rule my destiny:
    Cuz silver and gold will vanish away but the mercies of God is forever to stay. listen to what the messenger says. Trust in God is the only way. You rich or you poor you could be gone any day’

    ‘ Neil system problem’, ‘restart your pc’ would be your response. Neil u will definitely be remembered . i admired u so much for who u were even though i never told u and i regret that i never did. Even though you were a ‘Karam’ u were so much of a humble person its unbeleivable. You spoke and dealt with anyone especially when they needed your help. Although you were a no nonsense person, you were hard working and ambitious. That music man –early in the morning in the IT room, just comin next to ur pc and singing wit u. Never Triple Kay or 50 Cent. Most probably a Luciano, Morgan Heritage, Jah cure and u name it. In the lunch room, those silly kid movies and cartoons. You were such a kid yet u were so informed about everything. I remember u looking on at Independence when we decorated and making those comments with sup about Michael J when he died. I know that the whole of clear Harbor and Dominica will agree that there is nothing but fond memories of Neil Karam. Never a bad moment or interaction with u involved, honestly. You were my boy , Someone whose opinion mattered. You wil be missed dearly. My whole heart goes out to your family. Such a young and beautiful life lost. Why does God have to take all his angels away??

    Condolescences KARAM. RIP NEIL. YES FADA!

    Since hearing the tragic news of this young man’s death, I have been observing the comments and wish to say that his life and death is a testimony to who he was, is (yes he still is) and will continue to be to many people. He lived well, and he will live even better in the afterlife. For those of us who felt the need to remark negatively at such a tender and sensitive moment, I pray for you and your blatant disregard for his family and friends who are in mourning. I never spoke to Neil Karam but I noticed he often smiled and spoke softly, never loud and harsh or swearing. Something about his personality makes me now question how I do things and react to people and situations. This is an opportunity for reflection, for affection and for the appreciation of life and death. Death in all it’s glory has claimed a life, but Death has brought people together in a forum more than I have witnessed before. Life is also very beautiful, but life is also very deadly. This death is a gentle reminder of how life can be beautiful and lethal at the same time. Everyone has a passion and Neil Karam’s was the Need for Speed. His dying in a fast car is a cliche example of people dying doing what they loved. He may not have been the driver, but he was there for a reason and it was his love for speed. I do not blame him, rather I thank him for being an example who many looked up to and hopefully whom many will seek to follow in his character and mannerisms (not the love of racing). To his family I say God bless and keep you. To his friends, he was a good friend to all so honour him and smile when you think of him. To his acquaintances, I am certain that your lives were affected in one way or another after meeting him. His death reminds me so much of Dwight Ferrol….Angels in God’s Realm. Smile down on us and intercede for us with the Heavenly Father….R.I.P. to Neil Karam.

    TO THE FAMILY, HOLD STRONG, i know at this time you appreciate all the kind words…but at the same time nothing is going to bring him back, and you have to live with that emptyness in our heart, just remember that he was loved

    The thief comes to steal, to kill and to destroy. That’s the DEVIL! Can’t we see that he is taking all our young people,especially our real men…we need to remind him that he is A THIEF, A MURDERER; A LIAR and we need to chain him in hell where he belong. We need to pray for our children and pray with them;making this our mandate.

    To the Karam family, hold on to God’s unchanging hands…He is with you, not satan. satan is trying to make you question God WHY ME?

    But God called his Angel home, to prepare for his final coming, so that Neil will receive us during that coming of Christ.

    Be Blessed, be strong, My Deepest Sympathies to you and thank Jesus for his resurection power in you

    RIP Neil

    the last time I saw you, you were in a red T-Shirt and blue pants wi boy. now 3 days ago. I sat on your lap and touched your face and asked you “how comes you have that pimple nuh?”. and you said “i was eating all the ham and turkey over the christmas holidays” and i said “and the mac and cheese mummy making for you too that have you thick so” and you smiled and we talked but now you’re gone!!! And it’s funny you know.. you warned me somehow that day… you asked why don’t I call you anymore?” and I said “well you don’t call me either” and you said ” I didn’t know you wanted me to call you”…but we never know do we??? I just wish that I could turn back time because surely I would cherish every moment with you like it was my last. and it was really my last eh. I had also dreamt about a new house, big mansion man, with nice wooden stairs several floors and I never quite reached the top. it was so huge. They always said dream of new house is death.
    you warned me and I was warned! I just wish I could interpret my dreams more clearly! and read signs more clearly or at least in time. I iwish the world had more answers! I wish you were given another chance! damm it man! you’re gone just like that neil??? just like that???
    anyway enough of the mooshy stuff. we’ve got to move on with our lives and though you are gone, YOU will NEVER BE FORGOTTEN! NEVER! EVER! EVER!! and to the family my deepest condolences… R.I.P neil.
    i still see you waliking the isles eh, playing with your phone just like that picture.
    P.S
    If it had to take another handsome, sofisticated and inteligent chap to die so tragically i just want to say to all those car racers and bikers out there… WATCH THE ROAD! IT IS NOT FOR RACING! AND IF YOU WANT TO RACE… GO TO A RACING CLUB OR SOMETHING FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! GET A RACE TRACK! RACE BY YOURSELF BECAUSE YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR OWN DEATH! DON’T PULL SOMEONE ELSE DOWN WIT U GOD DAMM IT! OH F**K me man!!!

    yes my dear Neil , every time i go into that IT room i imagine u smiling and making one of your comments ..I remember that sweet reggae music. I remember when i told u ‘U is a Rasta Man’ and your respons3e ‘yes and i can ride bike to’ (inside joke). I remember u walking down my lane with yourcheckered shirt. Wil miss those days i am late waiting for bus on public works and hoping to meet u to reach on time. I remember that U-Turn u took before hitting that road to clear harbor on a day we were both late. Neil, every day I will miss u, I feel your spirit every where i go, your face haunts my memories. You are gone to soon, fada. Neil u made each and every one of us cry at Clear Harbor. Gone too soon.

    People please inform yourselves from the word of God. Only those who die in the Lord go to meet HIm…there is no such thing as a journey of that such…You must prepare for death by accepting what Jesus did ont he cross many years ago…Its impossible to leave how we want and end up in a better place…now listen i’m not judging neil..neal may have been saved, who am i to judge…I’m talking to those living who feel they can sewo hard and after death a better place awaits them automatically..only when you have put given christ your life and living for the Lord…your death will be precious in the sight of the Lord…only then to be absent from the body will be present with the Lord. However as harsh at may be, only those who have never given Christ their lives and lived for Him on this earth will end up in Hell…No one wants to go there but there is criteria to avoid going there…So please people repent while you are young so hell will not be your place of abode after death. After one dies if he had not made his heart right with God, no amount of prayer will get you out of hell…one can only rest in peace if they had a relationship with God b4 they died. You can prepare for heaven by admitting that you are a sinner, and believing that Jesus died on the cross 4 u and asking Him to come into your life to clease and save you. He will come and make you new…It is possible to get to heaven and escape hell but its not majic, its a choice to depart of your sinful living and live for Christ only.

    I lost my only brother some years ago and still haven’t fully accepted the lost.It’s so hard when things like that happens.It ‘s like they say first u ask God why,then you still stay in a denial stage for some time until you try to move on and accept things.Hopefully,you will be able to move on but it’s hard.Don’t judge the young man that was driving that car,he’s human like us all and may have just made the mistake of driving too fast that one night,God allowed it to happen.We know not the minute nor the hour of our death.My brother’s death makes me feel like I have no real fear of dying anymore,sometimes I feel like I want to crossover so we could be together again.But Jah guides me and my faith helps me to get back my senses.We must celebrate life,love,live and survive,it’s all we have left.It’s been over 6 years and it still hurts,i’ll never get over losing him,i’ll mourn him til i join him.
    To the Karam family i feel your pain,my condolences.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures, he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul, he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Yea, though i walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for thou art with me , thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me, in the presence of mine enemies, thou anointest of my head with oil, my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and i will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever. AMEN

    Words are bitter when it comes to saying that we all will miss you. Neil, a friend, schoolmate, possibly the greatest friend a guy could have. I hope your pass through up the stairway was smooth. I know u looked down at all of us who moans in sorrow, still you turned to continue your journey knowing in your heart that there lies a greater place for you somewhere else, away from this world. Even as me and many of us who pray for you hope you look down on us and ask the almighty to bless and protect us in all we do, I utter for it is we, when our day comes to approach before him that we shall all see you once again….R.I.P my dearest friend, only the good die young…till we meet again….

    If i may, i would see neil around town area..i didnt know him so personal, and you know how you would tend to want to know someone just because of their personality. well God gave me the opportunity. i went over to his house one night uknowingly that i was about to enter his father’s house in town. then there was neil and one of his friends, the friend i went with and me, and then came another. guys lost in the happiness of playing around with cell phones and other electronics, and yes i sat there and i actually looked at them and was astonished by the thought to see that anything and everything do bring people together, there was laughter the whole night as we sat around the table and I barely knew anything of these guys, i only knew chad (my friend). well i just came from work and was tired, ended up spending the night over before we left we had a few to drink, and i must say these group of guys were friendly, i thought i woulda gotten the chance to hang around again, but for this one i was really thankful, cause then you learn so much about a person in such little time that it amazes you. Neil was a cool guy, talented in technology, skilled beyond belief, i mean he could work on that like no other, and that night i was like damn these guys gonna be on a role..(SMILE)…its as if, if they keep up they gonna own a business together or something. But now its all gone..
    Well Neil on this earth we get the chance to meet a good person at least once, speak to them and say hi a few times. well i met a group of good guys and us guys had some good fun talkin around that table that night although i was the only one who didnt know how to fix electronics like you all did.
    with respect and sadness, my condolences to your whole family, especially your father. (yap he made me laugh that night). may God continue to look over your family and may he continue to guide all of us on this journey we are all taking. you are not on this earth anymore physically but spiritually you are in the hearts of those you touched one way or another. To the family, smile for he is somewhere in a much better place, smile for he shall no longer suffer whatever he suffered. and if there’s one thing i believe he will want, again it is for us to smile like he made people smile around..
    REST IN PEACE Neil ….

    Neil is an absolutely amazing guy. At SMA, Nigel was my closest friend, and through Nigel, I met Neil. I left for Canada soon after, but I remember those long hours spent with Neil and Nigel playing video games and watching movies. I remember Neil – full of life, vivacious, friendly, pleasant, always happy, always smiling, and always fun to be around. My deepest, sincerest condolences go out to Fr Nigel, Nicole, Uncle Paul, Aunty Rose, and the rest of the Karam family. My prayers are with you.

    AH YES, THESE THINGS I TOO WILL MISS

    BE NOT BURDENED WITH TIMES OF SORROW
    I WISH YOU THE SUNSHINE OF TOMORROW
    MY LIFE’S BEEN FULL, I SAVORED MUCH
    GOOD FRIENDS, GOOD TIMES, A LOVED ONE’S TOUCH

    DON’T LENTHEN IT NOW WITH UNDUE GRIEF
    LIFT UP YOUR HEARTS AND SHARE WITH ME
    GOD WANTED ME NOW, HE SET ME FREE.

    An advice to attain Sabr

    This world is a believer’s prison. Gather all the strength at your command and be patient and forbearing throughout its ups and downs. With courage and fortitude, stand against adversities and calamities.

    Make yourself understand that the agitation and anguish inside you, aside from involving a great disgrace by themselves, are futile in confrontation with sufferings and calamities. Be happy with God and don’t complain in front of creatures about His irresistible decrees and inevitable ordainments. During the times of hardships, turn your heart’s attention to the focal point of Absolute Perfection (God) and you will witness its effects in this world itself and your heart will attain such an expanse that it will become the realm of the manifestation of God’s sovereignty.

    Richness and contentment will then pervade your heart such that everything related to this world will become worthless in your eyes.

    Sabr, forbearance and restraint bring fair, plentiful rewards and have sublime and beautiful forms in the world of Barzakh (purgatory).

    If you have faith in God and you believe that all the affairs lie in His mighty hands, you will not complain before God Almighty of the hardships of life and the adversities that strike you. Rather, you will accept them willingly, fulfil your duties and thank Him gratefully for His bounties. [Adopted from Al-Khomeini, Forty Hadith, chapter 16, ‘Sabr’]

    Conclusion

    Imam ‘Ali (a) said: “The one who practices Sabr will never be deprived of success, even though it may take a long time.” [Nahjul Balagha, saying # 153]

    To Neil’s Family, Adil Karam who was my classmate at SMA, Nicole whom I always greet on the road and to the rest of the family, I really do empathise with you all and in time you all will heal like many before in your own way.

    Bye Neil, your physique will become dust but the mere fact you existed permeates deeply into the psyche of everyone who knew you. Every person who remembers what your features looks like, came into contact with it, when he remembers them, you are awaken in that mind that thinks about you. You are so powerful that you are summoned through their lips, only speaking good things about you.

    To my wider audience, we ONLY have ONE life to live, once we die, we are only a figment of one’s memories. We are only awaken by pictures, speech and thoughts but Neil will never dwell in the flesh as a young man in the Commonwealth of Dominica after December 30th 2009.

    The outcome of Sabr (Patience)

    If a person bears patiently with misfortunes and calamities for some time and seriously endures the hardships entailed during loss of a love one and the bitterness arising from the renunciation of forbidden pleasures, and if all this is done for the sake of obedience to his Lord and Provider, it gradually becomes easy for him to bear with the hardships and difficul­ties. The soul of a patient person relinquishes its earlier uncontrolled state and he develops an enduring luminous faculty that raises him over the station of Sabr to reach other higher spiritual stations. Practicing Sabr while enjoining good and forbidding evil makes a person more steadfast and firm.

    Anguish, anxiety and untoward body movements at the time of financial loss, death, natural disasters etc., are the signs of soul’s weakness. They deprive one’s personality of stability and dignity, weaken the determination, and enfeeble the intellect. At such delicate moments, Sabr is key to the gates of felicity and deliverance. It strengthens the will and the power of resolution to overcome adverse circumstances, make rational decisions and act wisely.

    Sabr in regard to sins is the source of the self’s taqwa (fear of God). Sabr in regard to obedience (ta’at) is the source of intimacy with God and His love. And Sabr in misfortunes is the source of rida with divine destiny and decrees.

    All Praises be to Allah, the Giver of Life and the one who orders the angel of death to take the soul/spirit. Peace be to everyone.

    I knew Neil very well as a child because we lived a minute away from each other when Iused to live in the heart of Roseau. I used to come to his home. I remembered he had the Star Wars Trilogy VHS. When I reverted to Islam I used to share the message to him and his partners. He always use to tell me ‘one ting I like dat religion for is de plenty wives man.’ Neil was very kind and cool, always give me a lift to town and we would always chat, boy he always on my case with de wives ting.

    We worked at Clear Harbor up to this present day, we felt very sad at work today Neil. Your good deeds will be rewarded by Allah because He is never unjust to His creation no matter what religion we follow. Our faith and differences, that is only for Allah to judge.

    Every morning I enter the IT Room, ‘Neil Amstrong bwoy, de first man to walk on de moon…’ He would smile or laugh, I would tag him almost every morning. Or, ‘Neil, my pc has a problem.’

    Neil would respond, ‘Sorry, I doe see ur message na, I coming,’

    Neil, your passing away is a beginning to a new life. It is a lesson filled with wisdoms to your loved ones, friends and strangers. It will sift the believers from the unbelievers, the sincere from the hypocrites, the patient from the impatient ones. You may not be able to read this right now Neil because you’ve just arrive at your destination, the spiritual world. Here are words filled with wisdom regarding patience during this ordeal.

    And be patient and persevering, for Allah is with those who patiently persevere. ( Holy Qur’an, 8: 46)

    Imam Ja’far al-Sadiq (a) said:

    “Verily, Sabr (patience) is to faith what the head is to the body. The body perishes with­out the head, and so also when Sabr goes, faith also disappears.”[Al-Kulayni, al‑Kafi, vol. 2, bab al‑Sabr, p. 128, hadith # 2]

    The famous scholar Nasir al‑Din al‑Tusi said: “Sabr means restraining the self from agitation when confronted with undesir­ables.”

    The great gnostic (`arif) Khwajah `Abd Allah al‑Ansari said: “Sabr means restraining the self from complaint about hidden anguish.”

    Imam ‘Ali (a) said, “The Messenger of Allah (s) said: “Sabr is of three kinds: Sabr at the time of affliction, Sabr in regard to obedience, and Sabr in regard to dis­obedience (of Allah). And the third one is superior to the first two kinds.” [Al-Kulayni, al‑Kafi, vol. 2, bab al‑Sabr, hadith # 15]

    Imam ‘Ali (a) said: “Sabr is of two types: Sabr on what you dislike and Sabr on what you like.” [Mizan al-Hikmah, hadith # 10099]

  68. December 30, 2009

    LET THAT BE A LESSON TO ALL YOU WANNA BE “FAST AND FURIOUSES” OUT THERE……………..Dominica “DOH” have roads for this kind of SELFISH, wreckless, mindless auto racing **** which puts innocent parties in harm’s way.

This auto wreck was NEGLIENCE AND PURE SENSELESS STUPIDITY, nothing more, AND THUS COULD HAVE BEEN TOTALLY PREVENTABLE. Hope you brothers and sisters learn from this tragic and AVOIDABLE tragedy.

    where do I begin? this is not the news that any parent wants to receive. I look at the photos and i am just reminded of how favorable my family and I. and will forever be gratefull to God for protecting us on May 1st. I cannot begin to imagine the pain that the Karam family is going through. We ask Why? and it is okay to ask Why? But you know God is still in control. He is still Lord and I just want to encourage you to stay focus on God. It is okay to cry but just rest in him and he will take you through. He promises never to leave us nor to forsake us. He is not like man his promises are yea and amen.

    Ride out the storm
    God is right there with you
    You may not feel him
    but you are not alone
    Your are hurting now
    But you answer iscoming
    Just hold on to jesus
    and tide out the storm.

    To the Karam family – my condolences and prayers are with you. I did not know Neil personally, but he was a friend of my daughter. Upon hearing the news I went to her room asking if she knows Neil Karam and told her he died in a vehicular accident. Her immediate reaction was to cover her face with both hands.

    It is always sad to lose someone, particularly a young person. One who is supposed to have his whole life ahead of him.

    To the Titre family – my prayers are with you as and Bedrock as well. I am praying hard for him to make pull through this. God has His plans and He knows best but let us keep the faith alive.

    On another note, I believe that the area in which the accident took place needs some serious holy oil, holy water and prayers. Maybe Lennox Honychurch can tell us if our forefathers were buried in that area cause I find it ironical that so many people are losing their lives in that specific area. It could be some “spirit(s) haunting us right there. NOTE: I am not saying that that is the case, I am only wondering. And I strongly recommend that the Dominican Prayer Warriors need to consider praying for the breaking the curse in that area (if there actually is one).

    One Love!!!

    Condolences to the family, may you seek the face of God in your time of sorrow….Young people, old people, Dominicans, please souplait, alas exercise caution on our little roads, they are not meant for speeding, we don’t have highways, please take your time on those roads, life is too precious to put it in harms way, and if your find yourself a passenger in a speeding car, ask the driver to cool down his tempo or to put you down….such a bright young light got extinguished just so…alas, magway ca

    RIP Neil….my last encounter with you was at Clear Harbour in Nov 2008.I had just moved back home and came in to drop off an application there…and I had forgotten to photo copy a few of my documents. I remember bringing along miguel with me and the young lady at the front desk told me that i should go get the documents copied and return them to the front desk… But miguel called u and u came right out…and had the documents copied for me at your office

    Never knew you personally…but i pray that u rest in perfect peace!!!!My sympathies go out to the Karam family.

    the last time I saw you, you were in a red T-Shirt and blue pants wi. 2 days ago. I sat on your lap and we talked but now you’re gone!!! And it’s funny you know.. you warned me somehow… you asked why don’t I call you anymore?” and I said “well you don’t call me either” and you said ” I didn’t know you wanted me to call you”… we never know do we??? I just wish that I could turn back time because surely I would cherish every moment with you like it was my last. and it was really my last eh. I had also dreamt about a new house, big mansion man, with nice wooden stairs several floors and I never quite reached the top. it was so huge. They always said dream of new house is death.
    you warned me and I was warned! I just wish I could interpret my dreams more clearly! and read signs more clearly or at least in time. I iwish the world had more answers! I wish you were given another chance! damm it man! you’re gone just like that neil??? just likethat???
    anyway enough of the mooshy stuff. we’ve got to move on with our lives but YOU will NEVER BE FORGOTTEN aand to the family my deepest condolences… R.I.P neil.

    P.S If it had to take another handsome, sofisticated and inteligent chap to die so tragically i just want to say to all those car racers and bikers out there… WATCH THE ROAD! IT IS NOT FOR RACING! AND IF YOU WANT TO RACE… GO TO A RACING CLUB OR SOMETHING FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! GET A RACE TRACK! RACE BY YOURSELF BECAUSE YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR OWN DEATH! DON’T PULL SOMEONE ELSE DOWN WIT U GOD DAMM IT! F**K me man!!!

    It will be the little things
    that you will remember,
    the quiet moments,
    the smiles, the laughter.
    And although it may seem
    hard right now,
    it will be the memories
    of these little things
    that help to push
    away the pain
    and bring the smiles
    back again.

    “You can shed tears that he is gone,
    or you can smile because he has lived.
    You can close your eyes and pray that he’ll come back,
    or you can open your eyes and see all he’s left.
    Your heart can be empty because you can’t see him,
    or you can be full of the love you shared.
    You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday,
    or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
    You can remember him only that he is gone,
    or you can cherish his memory and let it live on.
    You can cry and close your mind,
    be empty and turn your back.
    Or you can do what he’d want:
    smile, open your eyes, love and go on.”

    RIP Neil Karam

    This wasn’t any “test drive”, we tend to not listen when we’re spoken to, untill something like this happens and finally gives us something to keep quiet and think about for the rest of our lives. It’s Terrible when we’re reminded of how stupid our acts can be and its heart wrenching when our loved ones and friends are used as permanent reminders. To the family of Neil Karam, my deepest sympathys go out to you for i know how hard this time is and will continue to knock, but trust in the Lord for he will see you through. And to the survivors, may you recover fully, and keep in mind that not all lifes mistakes can be Corrected…..R.I.P Niel Karam

    Sincere condolences to Neil’s mother and family. This is every mother’s nightmare. That dreaded phone call. But do these young men even think of that when they are racing around and endangering not only their lives, but those of others. Grow up and be responsible to all the others out there, let Neil and Justin and Wayne and all those wonderful young men’s loss be a lesson to us all, and not allow it to be in vain.To the police and judicery, who allow all this to go un checked, who allow the drivers back on the road……isn’t it time to act. This is not what mother’s sacrifice their lives for…….such unnecessary loss and grief. My heart goes out to Mrs Karam and all mothers who lose a child in this senseless way.

    On behalf of the entire Clear Harbor family, we extend our condolences and prayers to Neil’s family. Over the course of his time with us, Neil had grown so much professionally and personally and was a very important part of the great team we have in Dominica. As evidenced by the many tributes that are pouring in from those who knew him, Neil has left a legacy as a great friend, co-worker and son. He was always quick with a smile, eager to do whatever he could to help and willing to take on additional responsibility. He will be sorely missed. May God comfort and strengthen his family and friends during this time of tragic loss.
