TRIBUTE BY

                    KWEKU ARHIN






                                                      BROTHER



                                                 There is a time for everything,
                                       and a season for every activity under the heavens:
                                               a time to be born and a time to die,
                                              a time to plant and a time to uproot,
                                                                                Ecclesiastes 3:1-2

                                      And I declared that the dead, who have already died,
                                         are happier than the living,who are still alive.
                                                                                 Ecclesiastes 4:2





                                                                   Upon my arrival to your bedside on the
                                                                   evening  of  that  fateful  Tuesday  at  the
                                                                   hospital  in  Accra,  I  thought  you  were
                                                                   asleep, but when your husband called you
                                                                   and said “Efe Arhin aba ooo”, you opened
                                                                   your eyes, shook your head, and closed
                                                                   your eyes again, with that being the last
                                                                   time  you  heard  my  name  before  your
                                                                   demise.

                                                                   Your passing away came so unexpectedly
                                                                   as we were all optimistic that you were
                                                                   going  to  sail  through  the  storm  but
                                                                   unfortunately you couldn’t.
                                                                   I can still hear you groaning in pain, telling
                                                                   your husband and I that we should pull
                                                                   you  up  on  your  bed.  Ever  since  your
                                                                   demise,  I  just  can’t  stop  thinking  about
                                                                   your love and the kindness you extended
                                                                   to all who encountered you, not forgetting
