Anyone who met Akeem was toucbed by his kindness, gentle soul, strong work ethic, and perserverence. My heart goes out to his family, especially his young sons. May they be surrounded by love and positive memories of their father, who was taken too early. I was fortunate to have been Akeem's marine biology professor.

I never knew or met Akeem. What an awesome athlete and just a wonderful person. I know his aunt Josephine from working together with her for many years.
If he has half of her gene pool, he´s all world. My sympathy and deepest condolences to all of his family and friends.
