Amir Dasooky has been missing since Nov. 20th and family and friends are desperately searching for answers in regards to his whereabouts and for his safe arrival home.
Friends say Dasooky has a passion for nature, whether diving off the coast of northern Israel near Haifa where he grew up or in the icy waters in Lake Minnewanka – he was in his element in the outdoors.
“He’s just very interesting. He’s down to earth and he’s a person that loves nature,” said friend Ahmad Qatanani.
Qatanani met Dasooky at a Calgary gym. They quickly became friends as Dasooky introduced him to the world of diving.
Qatanani says Dasooky has a wide range of knowledge. He trained at Olds College as a farrier and had a connection to several First Nations communities through his expertise with horses.
“He’s the kind of person if you need him to do something he’s going to be there for you,” Qatanani said.
But his latest adventure has turned into a nightmare for his family.
Dasooky was last seen leaving his home in Calgary on Nov. 20.
