Dr. Khezri worked at Allure Esthetic in Kirkland, and Dr. Javadi was a periodontics practitioner in Edmond.“The other couples didn’t know what had happened,” said Dr. Javad Sajan, a close friend and coworker. “So they were in traffic, sitting, waiting, then they started calling Dr. Khezri. They couldn’t get ahold of him.”“We couldn’t understand it. We couldn’t fathom it. We didn’t believe it,” Sajan said.Friends describe the couple as smart, adventurous, and deeply caring both inside and outside of work.
