reply-type=response<BR><BR>I am sad to say that our dear friend Ishaq
M. Shahryar passed away Sunday<BR>evening, April 12, 2009. Mr. Shahryar was
well known in the solar industry<BR>as the successful founder of Solec
International, the first terrestrial<BR>solar cell factory. The New
Scientist magazine titled him The Sun King and<BR>reported that he
"virtually invented solar power as a serious energy<BR>source." Mr. Shahryar
loved America and his native homeland, Afghanistan. In<BR>2002, the former
Afghan King Mohammad Zahir Shah asked Mr. Shahryar to<BR>represent his
homeland which he accepted to become the first Afghan<BR>Ambassador to the
United States since 1978. His Excellency, Ambassador<BR>Shahryar served pro
bono and also invested much of his own money in the<BR>embassy. After
serving as Ambassador, Mr. Shahryar returned to California to<BR>start a new
solar company, Sun King Solar. The solar industry, Afghanistan,<BR>his
family, and his many friends will miss Ishaq dearly. He is survived
by<BR>his wife, Hafizah, son, Alexander, and daughter, Jahan.<BR><BR>The
funeral service will be held 1:00PM, Saturday, April 18, 2009 at
the<BR>Hollywood Hills Forest Lawn Memorial Park, 6300 Forest Lawn Drive,
Los<BR>Angeles, California 90068 (tel
800-204-3131).<BR><BR>Sincerely,<BR>Joel Davidson</SPAN><BR clear=all><BR>--
