OBITUARY #1
This sad news is from Professor Baharuddin Aris about his father's demise, which I received today, and which made me cry:
"My dad, Aris bin Haji Abdul Aziz (nephew to Dr Hamzah), is among the contributors to Professor Faridah's book. He recently passed away in Johor Bahru on March 8, 2012."

| Allahyarham Encik Aris bin Haji Abdul Aziz (1934-2012) |
BIODATA
Aris was born in 1934 in Johor, the fifth of six siblings. His parents were Haji Abdul Aziz and Hajjah Hasnah bt Orang Kaya Md Yassin. Aris was a direct descendant of Orang Kaya Ringgit from his mother. Aris was the nephew of Dr Hamzah bin Md Taib (1900-1955), an early Malay doctor.
As a teenager (at age 15-16) in the 1950s, Aris had met Dr Hamzah as Aris’ father was close to Dr Hamzah. Aris was a bright student who completed his Cambridge exams at age 14 years. He was the youngest at his school. His intelligence attracted Dr Hamzah who wanted to adopt him, as he had four daughters then but no sons yet.
En Aris worked as an officer in the Johor State Government. He retired early in 1984 at the age of 50.

CONTRIBUTION TO RESEARCH ON THE EARLY MALAY DOCTORS
En Aris was very helpful to this research. He was contacted through his son, Professor Baharuddin.
Dr Hamzah’s roots were informed by Encik Aris bin Abdul Aziz on 5-8 January 2008. He gave a detailed account of Dr Hamzah's life.
Dr Hamzah’s roots were informed by Encik Aris bin Abdul Aziz on 5-8 January 2008. He gave a detailed account of Dr Hamzah's life.
Among other things, Encik Aris explained many things in Johor history. He explained about Malay marriages and the meaning of salin tikar. He also explained the meaning of the term anak Muar. He emphasized the greatness of the Malay people especially those from Muar whom he knew, their families, links and roots.
He contributed in writing and drawing up the various family trees and added so much detail. He supplied the very important bulletin, Jendela Selatan, which was otherwise difficult to obtain. He supplied many photos for the author to keep.
It was very easy to write Dr Hamzah's biography after Encik Aris had explained all the details.

http://theearlymalaydoctors.blogspot.com/2011/01/9-dr-hamzah-bin-md-taib-1900-1955.html
He also checked several drafts of Dr Hamzah's biography and would immediately call the author if he noticed any inconsistency, error or something was wrongly worded. He carefully checked all the details in Dr Hamzah's biography till he was happy with it. He was happy in the end and thanked the author for writing about his favourite uncle.
We will certainly miss him as he was a great contributor to this research since 2008.
We convey our condolences (ucapan takziah) to his two sons and gift them the reward (pahala) for reading Al-Fatihah. Please read Al-Fatihah for him. May he attain Husnul Khatimah and may his soul be placed among the soleheens and all the great people in Islam. In sya Allah.
