Personal note from Chinedu

Thank you so much to everyone visiting this page. We understand that we are in the middle of a global pandemic which has made it difficult for many people to visit us to express their sympathies personally. We will all miss dad tremendously and would love to have you share your favorite memories of him on this website.

We would appreciate any photos, stories or other memories that you may have. Even in death, we would like to celebrate our father's life through precious memories. Please pray for our mother, my brothers and the many other family members and friends that have a lost a man of tremendous character and integrity. Dad, you will be forever missed!

As we finalize arrangements for dad, we will inform you. Thank you.
