He introduced Hala, his eldest sister to her husband. He also spent a lot of time with Nada, his youngest sister and used to always playfully wrestle with her to “toughen her up.” “If he returns, I'd build him a house and tell him not to worry about anything but just be with us," Hala’s husband said. “I look at the door often and think to myself: Yalla, he’s coming in a bit,” Nada, Ramzi’s youngest sister said while staring at the front door.
