This site is organized into pages which represent different phases of his life.  It can be navigated like a book, one page at a time, or from this home page.  Included on every page are examples of Nejat's thoughts, which he recorded in a journal between the ages of 18 and 25.

The people who knew and loved Nejat are integral to this website.  Your pictures and remembrances make it come alive. 

Please feel free to email your comments, poignant memories, funny stories and pictures.  This website can be continually updated with your input.

Acknowledgments & Comments:

I want to thank the Ezal family and Nejat's college friends for their support and cooperation in completing this memorial. In particular, Mr. Ezal's contribution was invaluable. This process of learning more about Nejat and translating this information into a web memorial has been a deeply moving and humbling experience. I can only hope I've done justice to the memory of someone, who had such an affect on so many. I met Nejat in the summer of 1986 at CAD-Camp at Harvey Mudd College. This was two-week program for entering high school seniors that introduced computer-aided design. He had this uncanny ability to make you feel at ease and want to be his friend after just meeting him. Although we were friendly over the next 4 years, I cannot say that I was ever a close friend of Nejat; I deeply regret never having gotten to know him better.
