IN MEMORY OF ELIAS.S HADDAD
In memory of the head of our family, the late Elias S. Haddad, we append here below the history of a self-made man who traveled a hard and long journey from a simple peasant to a prominent businessman. He started off with nothing more than the elementary education that his home-town could provide, and with no capital at all, yet he made that significant journey depending on a combination of natural gifts: willpower, determination, clairvoyance and an insatiable ambition. |
