May his soul rest in perfect peace
It is with deepest sympathy and pain I send this condolence message to Dr. Keinde Craig and children. Yinka was a mentor, a big brother and a fine human being. He was full of life, showed such gravitas in his knowledge of journalism as well as his kind way he did spread sunshine and imparted knowledge to everyone around him at work.
ReplyDeleteIt is a colossal loss to everyone he crossed paths with. Do take solace in knowing that he is now in the Lord's bosom of mercy where pain or hurt will never again be his portion. May he rest in perfect peace, Amen.
May the Almighty God be with you all and heal you.
