Dr Kemjika, We never met but you are alive in my mind and memory through  your pictures and what your Mum, Josephine, told me about you. You look so much like her and obviously inherited her hard working Spirit. My family and I will continue to lift your Mum, Dad, your Siblings and all that you left behind at the Throne of Grace. May the Great Comforter continue to console them. Rest in Peace.

Ureh Nnenna Lekwauwa

Nkemjika - May your ever cheerful & generous soul find Eternal Bliss & rest!

Sincerely & with warmth by Uncle John & Auntie Gail Eluwa.

I’ve been struggling for weeks to find the words to write but I’m realizing there aren’t words that do justice to what you meant to me and our med school crew. 

You and I met on Day 1 of medical school. You were sitting behind me in the lecture hall. I’d moved to ATL without a car and asked you for a ride home as my fellow Igbo brother lol. Who knew that such a friendship would blossom— eventually calling one another “little/big brother and sister”.

You always checked on me and eventually on my husband and young daughters. You even helped me when my daughter had what we thought was an ortho issue. I was looking forward to the day they could meet their silly Uncle Kem. 

You loved people. You loved to see your friends and family progress. You never shied away from telling folks how proud you were of them. I find some solace in the fact that I was able to tell you I was proud of you too. I didn’t realize til now but although you were social and boisterous, you were very humbly and quietly the glue that brought and kept people together. 

I will miss your quirky antics, your nosiness lol, your random texts with news articles…we’ll miss everything about you. Until we meet again, my little/big bro. ❤️

My prayers are with your parents, your brothers, and all who got to know and love you. 🙏🏾

Kemji was an inspiration to me and so many others. He lit up any room he was in and had such a positive energy about him . I Looked up to him so much and can't express how much he will be missed. So proud to be his cousin and he will never be forgotton.  

RIP cousin. 

Love always - nduoma 

You are sooo missed here at Orthoatlanta-Monroe! 

What a delight it was to work along side you in clinic for your first year!   

Kemji… this is so unreal. You became my brother in a twinkle of an eye… I teased you, this last exam was going to be a good year for both of us like I fondly said. You praised every little step I achieved in life like It was so big and embarrassed me with those praises. 

I will surely miss teasing you and having you around to comment on everything. I am glad I shared how kind you have been to me before you left since I tease a lot. Is hard to believe but my phone has no messages from you anymore so you have truly left us. 

Jojo misses you too and cried alot… Emma didn’t get to meet you.
