This GoFundMe page is to help raise funds for a good quality recycled plastic Memorial Bench, inscribed in memory of my cherished husband, Khalil Younes and his Cedar’s Mediterranean Grill. He passed away unexpectedly on Jan 11, 2024, at just 60 years old. We will place this memorial bench to the left of the restaurant’s main entrance area, and we will also have a custom cedar bench made by Stephen Perry, that will be placed next to the big tree that is behind the restaurant. I know so many Bastropians were friends with him for many, many years, and his fun personality and wonderful food dishes are missed by all of us.

Thank you for joining us in bringing this project to life as a way to honor him and his restaurant legacy. We appreciate each and every one of you in this fine community of Bastrop and I thank God every day for showing our family the way here.

Love Always,

Tracey & Samir Younes
