Uncle Foday, I wrote this poem in honor of you.
A soft glow rests on your life, Foday.
God found a saint in you.
Although we are left in pain today,
Your glow- it still shines through.
Your laugh, your talk, your walk, your smile,
You blesses us all with your unique style.
Even if for a short, sweet while.
We'll treasure your life, and mourn your death,
And cherish your memory. It's all we have left.
Until we see you again, in all your glory,
We'll follow your light, but we will not worry,
God's placed you in a good place.
You are our son, brother, uncle friend, and now-- a Godly saint.
Until we meet again Au Fo, our hearts can hardly wait.
May you rest in peace my dear uncle. Love, Kani
