“TRIBUTE TO A LEGEND ON TRANSITION
You Loved us, as though you bore us
Raised us all as though yours
Oh! “Death be not proud”
Donne has said and yet we sing thy poem again!
In our hearts, till eternity you live.
Though you lay sound asleep crossing the last abyss.
We sing your praise as you walk down the streets of gold, wearing the crown of crowns.To be remembered for ever.
Live on Daddy,
Till we cross over for ‘the meet again’.

Thank you for being a father, mentor, teacher, adviser and for seeing the best in me,
God be with you till we meet again, daddy.
Rest on Sir, Professor Nereus Tadi Yerima.
