The only information I could gather was what was on the headstone itself. He was a young man who had just received his PhD degree when he was diagnosed with brain cancer. He died at the age of 27. One of his writings is on one side of the headstone, a poem by his father on the other, and something in Arabic on the back side. There is a large swan on top. He was afraid to die, and his headstone moved me

INSCRIPTION:
IN A PART OF HIS WILL HE WROTE ABOUT WHEN HE LEARNED OF HIS BRAIN CANCER

GOD, IF YOU EXIST, SHOW US THE WAY TO REACH A QUIET PASTURE, WHERE WE CAN HUMBLY EAT OUR DAILY BREAD AND NOT BE AFRAID...

I CAN NOT ACCEPT THE ROLE THAT IS FORCED UPON ME. I AM ONLY A SMALL MAN AND IF YOU ARE PUNISHING ME FOR SOME MISDEED OR STOLEN GLORY THEN AT LEAST CALM MY SOUL BY MAKING THIS CONVICTION KNOWN...

I LOSE THE PASSION AND FIRE THAT WAS THE END OF TIME.
