To Remember...and to Honor...always...this is Ahmet's House!

The silence of the years, from those once so filled with life and conversation...does it not make this life of loss so difficult at times? Yet, from Ahmet we have the songs...the stories...and a legend. “Man who is born of a woman is few of days and full of trouble"...indeed, yet it is our common fate...and what have we done by the days end? So today, the day after the seventh anniversary of his passing, we will do as we must: commemorate the days, and the life...and ensure that it will continue to be remembered. Join us, tonight, in Ahmet's House...
