Amadu was my classmate and someone whom I looked up to. He always helped me academically. It is sad that he is gone now but at least I know that he is in a better place. I am so used to seeing him sitting across from me in World History. To the family I wish you much love. He will be missed.

Please except my deepest condolences on the loss of Amadu. He was a good friend to my brother, Christopher, and I also knew of him through Tina. I know he will be greatly missed. Remember that though weeping endureth for a night, joy comes in the morning. Remember that God loves you and will keep you during this time. My family and I will keep you in our prayers.
