Kwame was like a son to me from another mother. I’ve known him since 2013 and have never seen him mad. Always a smile on his face and very helpful and sweet. I will always cherish the times we shared telling jokes and stories. I will miss his stories. He will always be apart of my family. He will be missed dearly.
