Words fail me. The pain and anguish your passing has brought cannot be described. O death where is thy sting? On the 14th of December, 2020 for some inexplicable reason I missed my flight even though I was at the airport on time. As always, I called you and we bantered, I came over to the house and being the thoughtful person you were you asked if I had eaten to which I answered in the affirmative.
The next morning you drove me to the airport and as usual we chatted all the way and you “Goodbye”, so you truly meant it? You were a brother, a friend, my go to person and an anchor! Chuks why?
Words fail me, the tears keep falling. If tears could bring back the dead you most definitely would be with us today.
It hurts, a searing pain!
Where do I start?
What do I say?
My noble Big Brother is gone!
My travel paddy is gone!
My brother from another mother is no more!
You would be sorely missed
Rest in peace Eyeneka mi!
Sanga Sung ooooo!
