RIP Kwabena Anti, (aka sly popo)

As we recuperate (if we ever will) from the initial shock of the sullen news of the passing of our dear brother and friend, I wish to extend my deepest condolences to you all.  To know Kwabena Anti was to know someone unique.  He was more than a friend... more like a brother and confidant to most, if not all of us.  He gave himself selflessly and each of us hold a piece of his precious memory... a time that brings a smile to your face as you remember him, and a time that may make you shed a tear knowing his warm smile, slight-fake limp, and unbuttoned short-sleeved shirts wouldn't be seen or felt again.

As we grieve with fellow brethren around the world, we ought to remember his family in our prayers.  To lose a son and/or a brother is hard enough, and the burden of debt only compounds it.  It is in this vein that I'm writing to inform you of a few updates:

The funeral service is scheduled for this Saturday October 18th.

Friends in Europe and here in the U.S. are donating to help offset the funeral costs and to show our solidarity.  Any amount is welcomed.  I know without a doubt that if roles were reversed, K. Anti would never hesitate to step in on our behalf.  Donations can be made through these mediums:

Please do well to indicate in the ref/comment section; anti27 (very important)

Please send an email to either nanabemp@tmail.com or suredross@yahoo.com with name and amount donated so we can accurately track donations.  If a wachovia bank isn't in your area or close enough to you and you wish to donate, please contact via telephone and arrangements could be made either via western union or something of the sort.

God Bless you all and please know that no amount is too small.

 "The righteous man perishes, and no man takes it to heart; And devout men are taken away while no one understands.  For the righteous man is taken away from evil.  He enters into peace; They rest in their beds, Each one who walked in his upright way"...Isaiah 57:1-2

R.I.P. buddy!!!
