Chief Sunday Ndubuisi Ariwodo Died Wednesday May 22 2013

I called Yomight the plumber in the morning to fix the toilet issue. He said he'll come on Saturday. Amara came in this morning. I left her at home and left for work. The office seems deserted today. MD hurriedly ate his food and left to pick his kids from school. Ify breezed in briefly towards evening. He left shortly. MD hadn't come back yet.

News got to me that we lost a relation this morning. One of my uncles, a patriarch Chief Sunday Ariwodo died this morning in Atlanta US. He lived a good life, achieved good things. He had a good wife and children. It’s a shocker. I can’t even write anything today. I grew up with living with this man and his family. His wife is my aunt, my dad’s elder sister. He has a legendary aka gum. 

He is a good man. I can remember his laughter so well.

May the lord comfort us all especially the immediate family.

May his soul rest in perfect peace.

"Daddy, you were like the sun to me

Alway there, and beaming life lessons to me.

Never did I expect the cold hand of death.

You taught me wisdom, patience and love

You taught me by being a role model.

Without your teachings, I wouldn't be

the man I am today.

You built a foundation no one can take away.

I have grown up with your values and I am

Glad, you were there for me.

I respect and admire you.

I love you, and will forever miss you.

Good night my God sent father

Rest peacefully in the lord till
we meet to part no more."
