I was indeed sad to learn of the passing of my dear friend and brother, Krisho.

On receiving the news, I was flooded with memories of our boyhood days…… memories that I would cherish. Growing up in Strathpsey he was our leader and, in a sense, our protector- whether we were playing cricket in the neighborhood, going to church or just having fun as young boys.

You are the Boss! Thank you for some wonderful memories over the years.

Rest in peace, Krisho.

Auntie Ellen and my dearest cousins and families, my heartful condolences for the lost of our beloved Kresho. My prayers are with you all. Kresho was one the kindest people I know. I remembered when I first came to Canada, he came to visit us the next day, he gave me a big hug and tucked $100 in my hand and then took me out for my first experience at McDonald’s. I had the McChicken meal and remembered how my taste buds reacted to such delicious food, still loves McDonald’s. On that day I learned the value of making someone feel special. I have been paying it forward since. His goodness will remain alive in our hearts.

Below is one of my favorite songs.

“The Garden” written and performed by Jimmy Scott

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane

We’d walk right up to Heaven and bring you back again

It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone

For part of us went with you the day God called you home

God looked around his garden and he found an empty place

Then he looked down upon the earth and he saw your precious face

He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest

God’s garden must be beautiful, He always takes the best

We knew that you were suffering – we knew you were in pain

We knew you’d never get well on this earth again

So he closed your weary eyes and he whispered “Peace be thine”

Then he took you up to heaven so gentle and so kind.

Rest in peace my cousin.

For my cousin Krisho who was more like a big brother during my childhood, I especially remember picking coconuts from the yard and kite making. I sincerely hope and pray that you are finally at peace. Life has dealt you a path with much pain and suffering. You deserved better brother. 

Sweet is the sleep that ended the pain. We shall not wake you to suffer again. 

Rest In Peace 🙏🏽

Ann
