Condolence From: Julie Keyser (Kennedy, Whitford, Northcott)
Condolence: I just learned of Nuri’s passing. 😪😪😪 I first met Nuri in 1973 when I worked in the tavern snack bar at the Bowness Hotel. I loved him right from the start! He was so funny and used to keep me in stitches. He had such a big heart, an infectious smile and was always protective of his friends and loved ones. We went on one date to the Cinema Park Drive In and I have never forgotten it. He was a gentleman and quite the intellectual. Heaven must be rolling in laughter with him there. The last time I saw him was in Innisfail about 10 years ago where he was golfing. My condolences to Karen and all your family as well as the Emshey family. We lost a ‘good’ one!!!! My memories of him will forever be in my heart!!!

Condolence: Karen...so sad to learn of Nuri's passing. We had such good times back in the Nowsco days...we worked really hard, we played really hard...the stories I could tell about "the big guy". A gentle man who I spent a lot of time with, a smart man who taught me a lot about life. Thinking back it brings a smile to my face. God Bless

His caracter, kindness, and sense of humor was every bit as big as he was. He was a friend and a big brother to a lot of us. Thinking about him has and will always bring a smile to my face.

Condolence: So many years have passed since the times of our youth in Bowness. Nuri left an indelible foot print in the hearts of many and he will be sorely missed by his friends and siblings. He was a true Bownesian and touched the hearts of many.

Condolence: Nuri was our Best Man when Chuck and I got married in 1976. We shared a house together eventually with Karen as well across from the Bowness Hotel. Those were happy days with lots of great memories. I've always had a place in my heart for Nuri. My family sends much love to Karen and Leigh as well as condolences to Nuri's family of origin. He was quite the guy.
