My condolences to the Dim family. Praying for you during this difficult time.

I, Destiny and Gift are sympathizing with the family of Chief Green E. Dim. (Omenukoaku n'Uga) and family over the passing into glory their beloved wife and mother into eternity. May her wonderful soul rest in peace. You are one out of others. Sleep well good sister-in-law.

Edith My Dear Sister, My heart is bleeding ?. Our friendship that started in college has ended without us enjoying our old age together, as planned. I’m speechless about your passing. I know you are resting without any more pain. Sleep in perfect peace, until we meet again.

A brief obituary to Mrs. Edith Dim, wife of Chief Green Dim (Ezeomanukoaku of Uga), DMGS Endowment Fund Founder and Financial Director, second DOBAww Vice President, President DOBANA 2015-2016, winner of the 2017 Chief Chike Okonyia award. On behalf of the President of DOBANA (DMGS Old Boys Association of North America)– Mr. Ndubisi Oguejiofor, and all members of the DMGS Old Boys Association of North America and on behalf of DOBANA Tri-State (New York, New Jersey & Connecticut Branch), of which both Green and Edith are members, I come to give our deepest and most sincere condolences to the family of Green and Edith Dim. Edith, with a handful of other DMGS wives formed an arm of the DMGS Old Boys Association which has earned its special attraction and permanent place in DMGS Old Boys North America’s heart and existence. Edith’s death has brought much sorrow and grief to all around her- her family, her friends, DOBANA and many others who had the special privilege of sharing in her short, but most pleasant sojourn here on God’s earth. We will never forget her. We will never forget her pleasant smiles, her constant willingness to help, to lend a hand and to serve. Some of us would have liked to ask our kind God, why, why at such a tender age, why O God do you leave us so hapless. But to ask such questions of the owner for taking His daughter, is to be presumptuous of the wisdom of creation- life and death. It would, I think be more proper to thank our kind God for giving us such pleasant gift and the privilege of associating and knowing this Angel of His creation. We thank you God, for giving us Edith for 61 years. We know that Green Dim (EzeOmenukoaku) did what a true Dengramite would do under the circumstances. He gave it his all. In the last year and half, Ezeomenukoaku had bathed, his precious wife, cooked for her and tried to feed her when she was able to eat. He gave medications at times every 2 to 4 hours round the clock. Anybody who has worked closely with this guy can understand how dedicated and how meticulous he was in following doctors’ orders. Only he knew very closely and well, what was quickly slipping through his fingers. His dear wife’s life was under a siege. He reconfigured his whole house to enable movement unencumbered for all. But it was a losing battle. The good Lord had commanded, and we mortals had to obey. What level of condolence do you give to a husband who lost such a jewel of a human being? How do you console a mortal, even a DMGS fanatic, who has seen his life turned upside down. How do you ask your friend to take heart, to stop crying, to sense the emptiness in his big house, the emptiness in his life? We can only plead for our kind God to please come down and save us. Now how does a man look his two daughters and his son in the face, and tell them that their 61 year old mother has just died? How does DMGS console Edith’s children. How do we reassure Vivian, Jacquiline and Robert that things will be alright. O God, where do we start this story. We must thank these brave children for being there for their father when he was getting worn down. They gave their best to help their parents when they needed them most. But the good Lord had ordained. It was time, and none of us could do anything about it. To Ezeomenukoaku, Vivian, Jacqui and Robert, DMGS bids you stay strong. We pray the good Lord to give your wife and mother Eternal Rest in His Kingdom. We pray Him to watch over you. As the famous prayer goes: “The Lord bless you and keep you. The Lord lift the light of His Countenance upon you, and may He console and protect you now and forever”. NDONU! Professor BCI Okpokwasili, D.Eng’g Sc. President DOBANA Tristate For DOBANA and DOBANA TRISTATE

Our Dear Edith, We write to wish you a safe journey on your way back to your maker. We are sure that our monumental loss here on God’s Earth is a joyous occasion in His Kingdom. We have no doubt, our dear Edith that you are going to a better place. We are sorry we did not know you would not be coming home to us when I spoke to you in the hospital. You brought a ray of Sunshine in our lives. We will miss your smiles, your counsel and the attentiveness you injected in everything you did. We agreed to go to Nigeria with our children and help them travel through our villages, to consolidate their motivation to visit our homeland. Little did we anticipate you were not going to fulfil that wish due to no fault of yours. Edith, we are so glad we had the honor to know and love you. You and your family will always have a special place in our hearts, and we will continue to be there for your husband Green and your children Vivian, Jacqueline and Robert. May God grant your family the fortitude and the comfort to bear your loss. May He grant them the Grace to always know that He is going to guide them through. “Je Nkeoma, Nnem” Your Friend Ada Eunice Okpokwasili (Amalunweze n’Ukpo) With Her husband (Dr, Bertram C. I. Okpokwasili, Onyeogadilinma n’Ukpo)

My dear friend and sister may you rest in God’s perfect peace, you will be truly missed

My dear friend and sister may you rest in God’s perfect peace, you will be truly missed

Tribute to Lolo Edith Dim The news of the death of your wife comes as a shock and resonates through us all but with solace, the soul of the righteous is with her creator. For believers who die in Christ, the eternal life given to them through faith in Christ does not suddenly die at death but it fully comes alive and continues into eternity in the presence of God. Our heartfelt condolences to you and your family. We pray that God gives you and your family the strength to go through this difficult time. Once again EzeOmenukoaku, please accept our deepest condolences. Professor (Chinyelugo) Ifeanyi Nzegwu and Family.

My wife and l are deeply sorry for this unfortunate and untimely loss of your wife Edith. Eze Omenukoaku nougat, please accept our deep heart-felt sympathy on the passing of your 'Lolo'. NDONUO THE ILOABACHIES

My very good friend, I remember the first time I met you at ACME with Vivian and Jackie as babies. I just knew that you were meant to be part of my life right then. I remember all the family celebrations and picnics just to name a few. You were such a simple and content woman of faith. I prayed that the good Lord will keep you with us a little longer but God wanted you home sooner. May your soul Rest In perfect peace! I will miss our frequent calls and discussions. Rest my precious sister.

Dear Edith rest peacefully in the Lord's eternal arms until we meet again. Your beautiful smile and gentle kindness will be forever missed. You left too soon. Rest in peace.

It is a hard knot to swallow but God in his infinite mercies will give us the grace to bear the things we cannot change. Edith, it is still hard to believe that you have gone to sleep in the Lord. Our heart aches and weight loss is burdensome and quite enormous. However today our loss has become heaven's gain as we mourn the transition of a jewel, a virtuous woman, a great sister and friend. Our hope and prayer is that God whom you served unreservedly with full commitment in this life will reward you with everlasting in His heavenly kingdom. The Dim's and Ofolebe's, my family commiserate with you and shares in your grief at this difficult moment, we prayerfully commit you all to the protection of the Almighty God. Amen Adieu Nwannem, Rest on. Chief Tony & Lolo Susan Nnajiofor.

Edith was an active participant in all the activities of DMGS Old Boys Association of North America (DOBANA). She was a charming, soft-spoken and friendly lady. She will be missed. May her gentle soul rest in peace and may her memory remain a blessing. Lux Fiat.

What devastating news it was when we heard of your passing.! We didn't know you were ill so it came like a bolt out of the blue. You were such a kind and generous lady. We cannot forget our first and only meeting with you. After the DOBANA 2016 convention which my wife and I attended, you and your (banker) daughter took me and my wife Chika on a tour around Toronto, while your husband and other DOBANA officers attended to DMGS affairs.. First, we rode in your car; then we went by train, visiting many places of interest and learning about them, including the famous covered outdoor market where various wares were on display and on sale. We sampled some of these freely, before buying them. The bottles of authentic Canada maple syrup we brought back with us lasted for some time, with our grandchildren enthusing about them whenever we served them pancakes. What a loss! Take heart, Omenukoaku and family, and may memories of Edith's life console you in this irreparable loss. May her soul rest in peace. Emmanuel Udezue, MD, UK Lugard House Prefect 1963

The loss of Lolo Edith Dim has left a huge vacuum in the hearts of the Ogbuehi family members. To start with, our son OC has lost the best God mother in the world who never forgot to celebrate every birthday with her now 18 year old God son who’s about to go to college. The pain of this loss will be with us for a long time, but we know that we’ve been endowed with a long list of positive memories she has left us. During her short time in this world, our family will forever remember her remarkable generosity and kindness. May her most gentle soul rest in perfect peace in Jesus Name, Amen.

Mrs. Edith Dim, You left us when we least expected and needed you the most, but our Almighty God knows the best. You were a wonderful wife, mother and true friend that is irreplaceable. The Nwachukwu family will always be happy to have known you all these years. Yes we will always miss you, but our solace is that you are no longer in pain or suffering. Rest In Peace until we meet again. Dr. James Nwachukwu

My namesake she would always call in her calm soft spoken voice. Edith was a very kind, loving, gentle, humble and graceful lady who lived for her family and others. We enjoyed the stopovers on our way back from Florida or South Carolina. I remember how she entertained us during our visits, and our conversations about our children especially my goddaughter Jackie. Edy was always smiling and thankful to God. My namesake your kind soul impacted not only family but also anybody who was blessed to know you. You and Green were blessed and have raised three beautiful, wonderful, successful, and well grounded children. May God comfort Green Vivian Jackie Bobby and all your loved ones. May Edith’s soul Rest In Peace. Edith Chukuka

Green and family, it is never easy to say goodbye to loved one. Take heart in knowing that Edith is in a better place now. She is at peace! May her soul rest in eternal peace until we all meet again!!

A Tribute to our Benefactor; Mrs Edith Dim According to Democritus , "Life is influx" . We are legendary travellers ; always on a life journey . Twenty-two years ago, December 1999 precisely, the G.E ROJAVIV SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION came into existence out of the benevolence of Chief Green Dim ( Omenuko aku na Uga ) , and late Lolo Edith Dim and three beloved children ; Vivian , Jacqueline and Robert. The foundation so far offered scholarship to a total of 74 Uga indigenes from the four villages in Uga through College and some through the University education. These individuals are currently doing great in different fields of life. Madam Edith, is a mother to all . A strong back bone to the foundation, supporting her husband to ensure that we are given all necessary support, guidance that will help our potentials blossom and flourish. Despite the distance, she always tries to connect to us all on individual basis. She reach out to us to asks questions about our progress, quest , plans and offer suggestions that will be beneficial to us . She is very caring, and goes the extra mile to take care of anyone visiting her home. Even when one in a hurry, you will hear soft voice saying "wait and eat before you go". The news of your death left us with deep sorrow than words can convey. However, as Christian we hope on the resurrection . We believe you are with the Cherubs serving in the Lord's kingdom like you did on earth. Finally , Our dear Chief Omenukoaku, Vivian, Jacqueline and Robert, Please accept our heartfelt condolences. May the lord grant you the fortitude to bear the loss. Our felicity also goes to Dim and Offolebe families , relatives, friends and well wishers . May God gives us all fortitude to bear this colossal loss , Amen . May he continue to console us all , Amen . Adieu our dear mum. G.E ROJAVIV SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION BENEFICIARIES.

TRIBUTE TO MY MOST CHRISHED SISTER EDITH Where do I start from and where do I end. You are gone! We knew this day was coming, yet the reality of it is devastating. The journey from the time you were hospitalized until your concluding breath, has been one of shredded emotions and continues pains. In the early morning of Saturday 17th April, 2021 my in-law Chief Green Dim (Omenukoaku) called my wife to announce that you had passed on. Unfortunately, his attempts to hide the information did not work because I was with my wife at that material time. The biggest cloud of darkness over-shadowed me, the cloud was overtaken by divine light of God to avert what would have been a double tragedy. Edith, your demise is too unbearable and the vacuum created in Ofolebe’s family will be difficult to fill. Your children, Vivian, Jackie and Boby you lovingly, peacefully and Godly brought up cannot believe you are gone. Your brothers and sisters in Nigeria have not believed you are gone. My hardest difficulty now is to accept the fact that I and my wife Scholarstica will not be in America to attend your funeral due to Covid-19 restrictions. The pains become more excruciating when I remember your hospitality and all the efforts to please us any time we were in U.S and various ways you had touched the lives of over 50 members of Ofolebe’s family. I can safely testify your husband and children’s abiding efforts towards offering the best chance at recovery. Edith you were a role model among women folks. You were humble, kind, generous and complete mother. It is my hope that the creator of life will grant the children the strength and resilience to accept your death with complete submission. My prayer and supplication to God is to grant the children, husband and members of Ofolebe’s family the fortitude, courage and determination to bear the irreparable loss and most importantly, the strength to stand up to challenges posed by your death. Adieu my most cherished sister. CHIEF VINCENT OFOLEBE

My Dearest condolences to the family, Very sweet lady. From Lavinia Vonner

Edith is a beautiful soul that I was fortunate enough to have the pleasure of knowing and working with. May we all find peace in the memories we hold of her.

The saints are being called home, one by one. If He asks for your scars, He won’t look hard to find them. May He comfort those you left behind, and bring us safely to His luminous presence with sounds of everlasting joy....

I miss you mum but I know you're in a better place. Viv , Jackie and Rob .daddy please take heart I ask God gives you the strength give you the heart to bear this pain I know it's not easy but you have God in your side and you always put through this. I'm sorry for your loss. goodnight mum I love you. Till we meet again.

A gentle woman with symbol of love.we can't question God but this we are sure that from now on there are great blessings for those who belong to the Lord when they die.” The Spirit says, “Yes, that is true. They will rest from their hard work. What they have done will stay with them.” Revelation 14:13 ERV your selfless services will remain in our hearts.may your soul rest in the bosom of the Lord. chinwe okpalauwaoma

I met Edith through our connection as Dobana wives. She was warm and humble yet determined. We sat together on the bus to NYC and shared happy moments discussing our lives & families. What shocking news! May her gentle soul rest in the bosom of the Lord.

TRIBUTE TO ADANNE Expressing how I feel about your demise in words is never an easy thing. You were always cheerful, positive minded, fun and full of life whenever we met. One may never truly understand why but one thing I can’t deny is death have taken away an irreplaceable Jewel, it breaks my heart that even at death we are so far away that I can’t bid you a final goodbye. Your memories will forever be cherished ADANNE

MAY HER GENTLE SOUL RIP.I WILL PERSONALLY MISS HER.

The news of the passing on to glory came to us as a rude shock You have gone the way of the saint To die is to shift from the physical realm to the spirit. Edith you were strong and carting showed love to all. During my ill health you cared for me in your house for one year The pain of losing a dear one is difficult to bear Sleep on and have your rest Schola Ofolebe Sister in-law

My dearest aunt was a blessing a privilege it was to have you as a part of our family. It’s hard to put into words how I feel about your passing. Your death has left a void in my heart filled with only memories. My aunt was cheerful, fun-loving, kind, a giver and her smiles could light up a room. We saw last in November 2019 when I came visiting we prayed together believing God for a miracle. As days turned into week and months your health worsened. The last time I heard your voice was 04/11/2021 you said to me “CHINEKE GA EME EBERE “ even at your lowest moments you held unto God little did I know it was the last I’ll hear from you. I don’t think I ever thanked my aunt for everything she’s done for me. I want to say a big thank you for loving my family Unconditionally thank you for being selfless. I take solace knowing your with the lord. Farewell aunt you left a mark in our heart ❤️ that nothing will ever erase.. SLEEP ON DAUGHTER OF THE MOST HIGH ? SLEEP ADA UGA

Life is indeed transient and ephemeral. God has spoken and who can challenge or question Him. We have solace in the fact that while on earth, you lived an eventful life worthy of emulation. We pray for the repose of your soul and your loved ones, the fortitude to overcome your absence. May your soul rest in perfect peace.

In memory of Edith Dim, Tom Obi lit a candle

I remember how soft spoken, sweet and loving Aunt Edith was. She was a woman of strength and a lively spirit too. Her death is truly a loss but death cannot take away our admiration for her. She has been a great Aunt and role model to us all. Her legacy and the moments shared will forever be engraved in my heart. You will be missed greatly my dearest Aunt.

Aunt, you were an epitome of love and peace. You shared your good life and your kindness was always felt. Your life on earth was worth emulation. May God comfort and sustain the family you left behind as you rest in the bosom of our Lord jesus christ.

May her gentle soul rest in perfect peace. May the good Lord give her husband, Chief Dim, Omenukon'Uga and children the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss. The Lord will comfort and console you all in thus moment of grief. It us well. The Lord is still on the throne. Once more, our condolences. Edochue&Charity Okoli.

❇️ Today, I pay tribute to Lolo Edith Nnenna, wife of Chief Dim Etisiobi Green. ? I am a full fledged professor today partly because of people like her and her husband. ?‍♂️ On my way to Harvard University, Boston in 2017 to deliver two academic papers, I stopped over in her house in New Jersey. ? She not only welcomed me with open arms but gave me a Nigerian delicacy "Ofe Onugbu" millions of miles away from home!!! ? I got energised, travelled 4 more hours to Harvard and delivered two of my strongest academic papers that have received rave reviews internationally and has given me the needed visibility in Google Scholar. ?Those papers have also been published in International Journals and well embedded in library of Congress after a thorough process of peer review. ? Eze Omenuko is a powerful member of the DOBA fraternity. ? Ex DOBANA President. ? 2nd VP DOBA worldwide. ? Shrewed economist. ? Ex Biafran soldier with scares of war still in his fingers. ✳️ A man who ate "ukwa" as provisions in DMGS but has become successful in life by dint of hard work. ✳️ The man who opened the floodgate of Dengramites in diaspora registering with the Mother Branch. ? A critic. ? Ezigbo Onye Lugard House, Class of 1971. ❇️ We share in your grief. We have always and shall always identify with every noble Dengramite. ?Your work as DMGS Endowment Fund (DEF) facilitator may not have been successful but for your dear wife. ?We pray for her soul. She has chosen to go home on the day of our Rededication and Thanksgiving Service in far away USA! That is enough evidence she remains a DMGS and DOBA lady. ? Eternal rest grant her O Lord. Good night and Lux Perpetua!!!

I am still speechless. Totally dumbfounded.. All hit me like a thunderbolt. Omenukoaku my classmate, brother, friend. I do not even know where to start.

Ladies like you were few and far between. Rest in perfect peace Nne m.

Nwada Edith (Quality Lady). The first time I heard your last name I was like wow, are you related to so and so and you said yes and we got talking. I remember the meeting days we use to set up the chairs n tables as well as cleaning up after the meeting. How we used to praise and laugh and tease one another before meeting starts. You never missed a meeting until you became ill. You were dedicated to Umuada. You even volunteered your husband services to us. You were a gem. You will be missed. May your gentle soul RIP amen. Farewell. Ngalakwesiri (VP - Umuadaigbo South Jersey chapter)

Praying for your family!??She was well loved ??Love you guys. I'm here if you need me!

Thinking and praying for you in your time of loss. May the Lord bless you, keep you, and make His face shine upon you as you remember and celebrate Mrs. Dims life and legacy.

Dear Edith, I remember the first time we met in Pittsburgh when you came to visit Baltimore, I remember months leading up to your wedding day, I remember my family visits to Bowie, and Sicklerville, I remember attending cultural events with your family and mine, and many more good memories of you. One thing I will miss the most is a call or text message to wish me Happy Father’s Day like you have done so many years. May you Rest in Peace! To Green, Vivian, Jackie, and Robert please accept our deepest condolences. Marie and I will continue to keep you in our prayers. We’re always here for you if you need anything Tunde and Marie Oyalowo

Dear Edith, DOBANA conventions and our vists to Philadelphia will never be complete without you - our friend and "near neighbour" in New Jersey - and your hospitality. Your humility and self-effacing manner belie your sacrifice for others and to DMGS. Farewell noble lady and master of the Egedege dance. Chijioke & Susan Ojji

CONDOLENCE MESSAGE Our hearts go out to you Chief Green Dim , in this time of sorrow as you say goodbye to your best friend and wife Lolo Edith Dim. No words can describe how sorry we are for your loss. The demise of your wife at this time is a painful experience for you and your family. It came like a swift ill wind that we know that you are not prepared for, however, we want you to take comfort in knowing that she is now resting in the arms of our LORD. We feel intimately bound to her as the many years we have known you. We do not know how to heal your pain, and we pray that your heart and soul will find peace and comfort in God during this difficult time of grief. May her soul rest in Perfect Peace. Amen!!! Prof. & Dr. Mrs. Prosper Igboeli.

Dear Edith, we remember two significant times of fellowship with you in 2019. One at Chioma and Emiliano's wedding where we took these fun photos, and the other when you and Eze Omenukoaku visited us with steaming hot Ukwa which you had prepared in various traditional forms. These capture the kind of fellowship our families enjoyed whenever we got to spend time together. Ours has been a long and enduring friendship which goes as far back as 1993 when we asked if you could serve as godparents to our daughter, Chineze. The God you served knows best and has shown us, again, that He has a special pathway for each one of us. There are many things we will never be able to understand on this side of eternity, but precious in the eyes of God is the death of one of His saints. As the Bible says, our lives are like a mist and you used your time and talents wisely. You have left behind your legacy in the three beautiful children you raised, your stalwart husband and family and friends whose lives you impacted. You have run your race and I believe God has welcomed you with "Well done, good and faithful servant!" May your gentle soul rest in peace! - Osita and Chinwe Okpalaoka

Farewell Madam Edith. You impacted a lot on us especially I as one of the pioneer student and beneficiary of you and your husband's scholarship programme G.E.R.O.J.A.V.I.V Ma'am we love you, but God loves you most. Once again, Rest In Peace.

Your departure is devastating. Nothing prepared me for this. Your gentle calming voice, glowing eyes, smiles and gentle touch will be missed. Our amusing sister-women talk is shut down. You were a real gift to mankind and will be cherished. May the Lord grant you eternal rest and His perpetual light shine on you. Rest In Peace.

Edith, You may be gone from our sight but never from our thoughts. We remember you always as that calm person, that awesome organizer during DOBANA conventions. We know you're in a better place, but it's always going to hurt. We ask for strength for EzeOmenukoaku, Vivian, Jacqueline, Robert and the entire family to carry on. Keep showing the Light.

In memory of Edith Dim, NDUBISI OGUEJIOFOR lit a candle

Chief Green Dim Eze Omenukoaku N’Uga Executive Director of DMGS Endowment Fund We, alumni of DMGS who are also members of the DMGS Endowment Club, committed to the principle of financing DMGS in perpetuity, have just received the devastatingly sad news of the transition of your amiable wife and life-partner, Lolo Edith Dim. She was your reliable support and consort, in tough times and in easy interludes. She was a gracious presence at all our gatherings. She was an untiring fighter for the affairs of DMGS, having adopted her husband’s vocation as hers. She attended all DMGS alumni affairs, spreading cheer and kindness, leading our wives in learning new dance steps, forging new alliances for the overall betterment of DMGS, and above all else, ensuring we were all fed and feisty whilst attending our biennial conventions across the United States and Canada. She had become, over the years, also an honorary alumnus of DMGS and an “under-chief fundraiser” for the coffers of DEF. We are in deep shock at this sad and unexpected news. Please accept our sincere condolences and our deepest sympathies, as we pray that the Almighty God, in His wisdom, send you & yours the promised “Comforter” in this time of deep pain. She has been called to His higher glory, and somewhere in Paradise, she is undoubtedly teaching the Elect all the new dance steps she perfected here on Earth, in the service of Grammar School. May her immortal soul Rest In Peace, perfect peace, for now and forevermore. May all Dengramites, far and near, bow their heads in silence, in memory of the passing of an elegant lady & exceptional wife. Prosper Igboeli, MD Chairman, DEF/DEC.

[19/04, 17:23] Chi Ojji: Ezeomenukoaku Green Dim, My wife and I are shocked at the news of the call to glory of Lolo Edith. Over the years we have come to know her well - 1st as your wife, then as the leader of the DOBANA women (a group my wife has become inducted) and ultimately as a friend in her own right. Our visits to Philadelphia and numerous DOBANA conventions are never complete without a visit to yours - our friends and "near neighbours" in New Jersey - and the hospitality of Edith. The last convention in 2018 in NJ offered us even more shared time than usual and a chance to meet your lovely daughters who have taken well to the excellent deportment of their mother. Visiting America will not be the same again. Edith shared a standing joke with my wife that they have embraced their 2nd wife status as both you and I are married to the work of DMGS. It is a demonstration of her humility and self-effacing manner as their sacrifice to DMGS is unquantifiable with Edith clearly the leader in the field. She was ever so helpful in making my wife at home in the DOBANA women's group and showing her the ropes of the Egedege dance of which Edith is an undisputed past master. We are at a loss on how to console you on this tragic loss. Words may fail us but we are hopeful in prayers that you will be granted the fortitude to bear it and the grace to remember her with fondness and joy. May the soul of Lolo Edith Dim rest in peace.
