There are just no words to express how I feel this morning. Kaweesi brought endless enthusiasm, commitment, and joy to the work and to the world. I will miss my friend and colleague deeply. Just as his smile and warmth was felt around the world, so will be his loss.
Kaweesi has been in my thoughts since I woke up today. I’m both grateful for having so much of the last three years getting to know Kaweesi and I’m really feeling his loss. There have been many times when he lifted me up, showing what it meant to be not only a great community dev but a thoughtful, patient, and insightful mentor and colleague.
Only the other day, @janflowers and I were reflecting on where he started when he became our QA Test Engineer a few years ago and how quickly he embraced and grew in that role. A real life long learner. Inspirational.
@k.joseph was extraordinary and made the world better. My thoughts are with his family and large OpenMRS family. We grieve together. May his memory be a blessing.
I searched for a beautiful photo which captures my friend. Thanks @burke. The smile and generosity was endless.
Such a tragic loss for everyone and my heart goes out especially to his family. We all loved him and in every picture you see the warmth of his smile and the joy in his eyes. He truly was a positive light in this world and we will be a little darker without him. Thank you for your words Paul and everyone and I hope there will be more details about how we can remember him and his family.
Words cannot describe the void that his death has left behind. He has been my mentor in my fellowship journey and now some things do not make sense, and death just seems so final.
I will miss my friend, mentor, guide and a coach deeply . Hoping to see Kaweesi Joseph when Jesus Christ shall return to take us home where there is no death, pain, and grief But Ever Joy and Peace
