                    HONORING THE LIFE OF GEORGE SABA

  (Ms. TLAIB asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. TLAIB. Mr. Speaker, I want to honor the incredible life and 
legacy of my dear friend, George Saba, who served metro Detroit's 
immigrant community for over four decades as a Board of Immigration 
Appeals accredited representative.
  George would walk in a room with a big smile, and everyone would 
smile back.
  George dedicated his life to reuniting thousands of families, first 
at the International Institute of Metro Detroit, and later at ACCESS, 
always bringing compassion, warmth, and unwavering commitment.
  Born in Ramallah, George was proud of being Palestinian and of his 
heritage. He was actively involved with the American Federation of 
Ramallah, working to preserve and pass on his culture to future 
generations.
  George's work transformed lives, and his presence brought comfort and 
strength to so many.
  On behalf of the 12th Congressional District, we extend our deepest 
sympathies to his beloved wife, Itidal; his children, Paul and Janan; 
his late dear son, Amjad; and his entire family and his friends.
  May his legacy live on and his memory continue to be a blessing and 
source of strength.
  ``Allah yerhamo''; ``God bless his soul.''
