Dear Uncle,
I'm so grateful and blessed to have had you in my life. I remember and have been formed by the hours of political discussion I would hear sitting on your lap with my Dad and uncles, to Aunt Karina giving me the world's biggest hugs and telling me I was special. To the world you were one of the most important intellectuals, to me, growing up hearing what can only be described as the world's heartiest laugh, you were just my uncle. One of the most important men in my life. Thank you, miss you. I hope to one day make you proud. Just give me a bit of time.
