Omar Al-Shibibi

Omar Al-Shibibi, 29, left this world for the next one on June 25, 2025.

He was born on Feb. 15, 1996, in Orlando, Fla., and at age 4 moved to Seattle, where he became fast friends with the “talking” monkfish at Pike Place Market, the seagulls at Ivar’s and the starfish at low tide.

We are blessed to have beautiful memories of a boy who liked to draw, swim, read and skateboard; who was sweet and goofy with his dogs; and who knew everything there was to know about birds.

He was a son, brother and grandchild, and he was loved.

In lieu of flowers, a donation in his name to Birds Connect Seattle, YouthCare in Seattle or a youth center in your community would be appreciated.
