    Carl!

    Oh my Word, Carl! You had my heart nearly jump out of my mouth with joy, I swear to God! I am very happy you called.

    I am very saddened at the news of your father’s passing. I know how much you had been planning on bringing him over to be with you and your family in the United States. Those are the unfortunate dynamics being separated from family. However, I am happy that you would be able to claim him as your father forever through Father in Heaven’s plan of salvation. The Gospel’s a pearl and our refuge in times such as these.

    You, are part of my village people (Umunnah!). Hope your wife and baby are well also.

    I am back to the practising law here, in the city of Durban on the KwaZulu-Natal east coast. I’m with Luthuli Sithole Attorneys – I made partner when I joined over a year ago, so it comes with greater responsibilities of building relationships with customers (and keeping those relations through offering better, quicker services). I’ve ben doing quite a bit of litigation since rejoining the practice, so. It is good that I am busy.

    Best wishes again Brother Carl, Brother Man!

    Please respond with your mailing address just so that I have it for my records.

    We’ll be talking.

    Dear Carl,
    We are all saddened with this news of the passing of your dad. In a time like this the best thing we the living can do is to console one another knowing that death is the conclusion of all lives. We are proud that he lived a good and patriotic life and it is left for us to complete the job that he started. This is the way to honor him. At this time we can do nothing but to accept the inevitable and for everything give thanks.

    Your brother Osita Ebiem

    Is sad to hear of the demise of the father of Carlisle Umunnah. But I am a bit consoled that he didn’t die failure but a success, having produced Carl, one of the most consistent civil rights activist of our time.

    May his gentle soul rest in peace.

    Why mourn the departed?
    Why cry for the dead?
    Why lift up your eyes to heaven and ask why?

    Has the circle of life not been completed?
    Did you not celebrate the birth of the departed?
    Should you not also celebrate the death?
    Did the departed not live a full life?

    In as much as the departed made a difference either positive or negative to a single life
    Its mission has been accomplished.

    So celebrate life and death.
