KC:
Good to hear from you. You definitely made a difference in the African
community down here. Over there in Dallas, you are never far away from us
and we will remember you, Angella and the baby. Stay well, brother and
touch base once in a while.
Best Regards,
Askia

Subject: Greetings From Dallas
| Greetings sisters and brothers,
|
| It is with gratitude and happiness that I am writing
| this email. My family and I moved back to Dallas a
| couple of weeks ago and I must thank all of you (on
| behalf of my family) for making our stay and
| experience in Madison memorable. To God be the glory
| great things He Has done. He opened a big window of
| opportunity for me down here in Dallas. You know I
| shared the good news with my parents and they
| responded: "Praise God! We told you that you could go
| to the moon if you wanted to." Nothing could be more
| fulfilling, then I reflected to 10 years ago. Sure
| enough, that was my parents' last statement to me
| before I boarded the plane to come up here for studies
| at the age of 18.
|
| So why are my sharing this with you? Because without
| my parents residing in the States, a lot of you have
| contributed to where I am today. On that note, I
| would like to Specially thank Some of the AAM members:
|
| Special thanks to my brother Mensah Lassey for
| introducing me to AAM. I had the opportunity to do
| some computer work with him at CUNA Mutual. I was
| still new in Madison and I remember coming back from
| lunch and seeing a maroon car with 'AFRICA' license
| plate. He could hear my Soukous music loud and clear.
| He had already parked and headed to the door and I
| was rushing to park so that I could introduce myself.
| He waited to introduce himself also and the rest was
| history. Thank you Mensah for everything.
|
| Special thanks to my brother Richard Yarl for ALWAYS
| being there - ALWAYS. Thank you for constantly
| reminding me of my parents teachings. Thank you for
| constantly reminding me to serve freely whether anyone
| values it or not. The reward is unbelievable! Thank
| you for being such a good role model. And thank you
| for your constant support of Africa United Soccer
| Club. I really can not thank you enough.
|
| Special thanks to my brother Ray Kumapayi who always
| reminded me: "You can not please everybody no matter
| how much you try." Thank you for being a role model
| to me. And thank you for all you have done and still
| doing for Africa United Soccer Club. Keep up the good
| work brother.
|
| Special thanks to my brothers Ken "Nwanna" Nwankwo,
| Abu Hassan, Oumar, Uncle Ben, Dr. Bossu, Uncle Dan
| Okpala. Special thanks to my sisters auntie Koso,
| Adelaide, auntie Ann-Marie, Zainabu, auntie Angie
| Osakwe, auntie Caroline offor. Thank you for your
| advice and your kind words.
|
| Brothers and sisters, please continue to strive to be
| at your best in all you do. I will continue to do the
| same down here. Remember that underachievers will
| always find ways to discredit you and your hard work.
| Ignore them and continue to reach for New Heights with
| Clean Hands. Please give your hearty support to
| Africa United Soccer Club. Do not hesitate to contact
| me at anytime. I am one email or phone call away and
| I am only 2.5 hours apart. Remember that you have an
| additional place to stay in Dallas when you are in the
| area. Sam and L.A.W., please accept my belated
| Congratulations on Liberia Independence day
| celebration. May God continue to guide and protect us
| all.
|
|
