I have known Yomi, as he was affectionately known all of his life. He is my nephew and my friend. I watched him grow into a man. Through that process I watched him grow spiritually moving closer to the energy we call God. He has been watched over and guided in that endeavour! Favor has always been put upon him ev en when it appeared to be negative! He was strong physically, mentally and spiritually! He loves and trusts God! After that it was his family and the martial arts of which he studied many styles, combining to create his own! A master and Sifu he is! He has pride and style, he loved nice clothes, with a style of his own. The way he walked, the way he talked, the way he stood tall, especially when he was in an aggressive stance! He didn’t fear anything, including the transition we call death! Yet he loved life in its many forms! Crazy about his mother, brothers, children! He has a special affection for his students! Well known for his profession and healing art acupuncture with which he helped many including myself! He loves nature, water, the mountains etc! An enfinity for the Universe! His sence of humor is second to none! He is a special man and spirit from my point of view! The smile,the way he would rub and scratch his nose! Those of you who know him know exactly what I’m talking about!!!! I love him and can’t say enough about him! If you noticed I never spoke of him in the past tense simply because he is not gone, he is still here, physically we we cannot hold and embrace him, but we can hold and embrace him in our hearts and mind! I will never let you go!!!! I love you Yomi my homey, my nephew my friend!!!! May Gods Peace be upon you!!!!
