In loving memory of Samar Al Ansari: a loving daughter, wonderful sister, and great friend.
Honored Guests, Parents, and Students,
Three years ago, IKNS lost one its most loved students. Samar Al Ansari, may her soul rest in peace, was a stellar student who was known for many amiable qualities. Not only was Samar known as an excellent academic and athlete, but she was also known to be a great friend with a great personality.
I personally never got the chance to get to know Samar. But I’ve heard many stories about her great personality from many people around school. From what I’ve heard, one can easily tell that Samar was an outstanding student. Whenever you hear Samar Al Ansari, you hear people talking about how intelligent she was or how kind hearted or popular she was. People would tell me that Samar was truly one of a kind. Many, like me, who didn’t know Samar or were merely acquainted, would say how she touched their lives.
Everyone who knew Samar loved her dearly. Some would tell me how her optimism kept them going. She was a witty and thoughtful person. She never left any problems unsolved. She scrutinized everything she stumbled upon. Be it an economics theory or a complex mathematical problem. And when she does stumble upon any problems, she examines it with a critical eye. Dissecting the problem into smaller manageable pieces. Samar was someone who wasn’t easily pleased with a straightforward answer. She looked for all possible solutions to any problems and weighed the consequences and benefits. She was an individual thinker, someone to look up to. In short, Samar had all the qualities of an exemplary student. In her loving memory, Samar’s parents have designated an award that goes to one IKNS student with exceptional critical thinking skills. This award goes to Nouf Khalid Mattar.
