TRIBUTE FROM ADJO AMEKUDZI

TRIBUTE FROM ADJO AMEKUDZI
Patrick
Brother, son, friend, and mentor

I think of you, with love
The love you gave so freely to others
The love they returned so easily to you, my brother

I think of you, with a smile
Smile at our friendship
Your great sense of humor
The twinkle in your eye
Your laidback style; always cool
The way you made us laugh, my friend

I think of you, with gratitude
Gratitude for your mentorship
Advising, steering, championing
Through decades never wavering, never waning

To Daddy, you were a son
To Brother, Kofi, Dzinyo and Dzibby:
A cool, enterprising brother

Today we celebrate you
We honor your memory with a resolution to love more, befriend more, mentor more, smile more, laugh more, and be cool.

You are gone too soon
Yet, we shall meet again.

Thank God for you.
