Faisal Tannous Kawar

Faisal Tannous Kawar returned to his Heavenly Father September 9, 2005 after a long illness. He was born December 15, 1931 in Salt, Jordan to Tannous Boulus and Fairuz Kawar. He came to America in 1954 and received his B.S. in agronomy. He met the love of his life and married her in South Dakota in 1957, later solemnized in the LDS Temple. He lived in Illinois, New Jersey and settled in Bountiful, Utah in 1969. He was an accomplished chemist who held five patents. Later he became a self-employed commercial printer until his retirement in 1999, when he moved to Logan, Utah to be closer to his precious grandchildren, who he loved more than anything. While often viewed as a curmudgeon, he loved all of his family and friends with his whole heart and soul. His love was boundless and he would give you the shirt off his back. He will be missed by many. Faisal is survived by his wife, Betty; brothers Suhayl and Hani and sister Leila Jiryes; his daughter Camellia Tad Stearns and their children Amber and Mason; and his daughter Lillian Kawar. Funeral services will be Saturday, September 17, 2005 at 2:00 p.m. at Nelson Funeral Home, 162 East 400 North, Logan. Family will receive friends from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. Interment will follow at Logan Cemetery. The family would like to thank the hospice caregivers for their compassion and care.
