Theme: Earthly

Suddenly

Suddenly
No son,
No brother
No fiancé

No instructor
No player,
No researcher
No colleague,
No teacher

Abandoning
All these
Earthly roles
He seems to
Have gone,
Much above
Cloud nine,
Having died
At the age of
Twenty-nine.

May he rest in
Blissful peace,
Amen.

 

(Dedicated to Peter Baddoo)

This scholar had such a promising career. He was an applied mathematician at MIT. He was an EPSRC Doctoral Prize Fellow in the Department of Mathematics at Imperial College London. He completed his PhD in July 2019 in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics at the University of Cambridge. In 2015, he completed a four-year MMath at the University of Oxford. Besides research, his interests were sports, music and theology. With an energetic and useful life and having a soon-to-be-wife, he had so much to look forward to....

He died on Feb 15, 2023 due to cardiac arrest while playing basketball.
A life cut short but a life well-lived.

His untimely demise has bereaved his parents, his two sisters and his fiancée.
