In a poignant snapshot, the organizers of the joy awards ceremony held in Saudi Arabia yesterday evening, Thursday, January 27, were keen to remember two great stars who left our world last year, the artist Samir Ghanem and his wife, the artist Dalal Abdulaziz, and gave their names in special honor.
A short video that includes stations from the lives of Dalal and Samir was previously shown, a speech delivered by the announcer, Wafaa Al-Kilani, during which she said regarding them: “He is the one who canceled the line between laughter and tears, we laughed until our tears fell, the headmaster of Al-Bahja School, the undisputed king of improvisation, Abu light blood and soul A lighter and a smile, all of life. She is the owner of a sweet soul and a gentle face. She has never been late in fulfilling her duty to all those around her. It seems that there is a sincere covenant between them: we will live and we will leave.
The audience stood to greet Donia and Amy Samir Ghanem and the memory of the departure of the late duo, at a time when neither of them might hold back her tears, and the honor was handed over to them by Counselor Turki Al-Sheikh, and Donia said, “Thank you, we were prepared for words to say, but we are unable to say anything, thank you for all the love, thank you to our family in The entire Arab world, thank you, Your Excellency, for the honor.
As for Amy, she said, “Thank you, Honorable Counsellor, thank you, Sheikh Walid Al-Ibrahim. I was ready to talk, but when I watched the video, I felt that I was not able to say anything. The first time I came down following death, but thank you, thank you for your appreciation of their history. Thank you.”
