On Saturday, August 20th, the IECOC held a memorial service for the late Sayed Mohammad Reda al-Qazwini, the uncle of Dr. Sayed Mostafa al-Qazwini, who passed away and was buried in Masshad, Iran where he had been receiving treatment. He was born in Masshad into an intellectual and scholarly family and dedicated his life to the service of Islam and Ahlulbayt through poetry and eulogies. The memorial service was attended by many who came to pay their respects to the family. We send our condolences to his family, friends, collegues, and acquaintances at this time.
