A thousand feelings of despair,
Invading my heart in one sudden rush,
The moment I heard of your passing-away,
My dear loving father.
Though yours may not have been a long life,
It was still a life well-lived.
Your children would never forget you,
Majidun will always remember you,
My dear loving father.
You were a voice for those who had no voice,
A father to those who were fatherless,
A husband to many widows.
And even till your dying breath,
You continue to put others first.
So many virtues you taught me:
Virtues of diligence, discipline and devotion.
I would indeed consider myself very lucky,
If I can only become half of the man you were.
As you journey peacefully to the great beyond,
Your lessons in our hearts abound.
You were really one of a kind Kanos Paikiegha —
One of the finest men I've ever known!
Victor K. Paikiegha (15/9/1962 — 26/7/2021)
