On May 9th, my brother, Nerjwudo Okak, passed away unexpectedly. His passing was sudden, heartbreaking, and left an ache in our hearts that words can’t fully express.

Nerjwudo was so much more than the struggles he faced. He was a son, a brother, a friend, a father, and someone who carried deep pain with quiet strength. He had a kind heart, a protective spirit, and a sense of humor that could lift the mood in any room. I will forever cherish the memories we made. - Esther Okak
