THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR SUPPORT; IT PROVIDED SO MUCH HELP WITH THE HEALING PROCESS! For all the loved ones that attended the celebration in person, or watched the virtual/livestream from as far away as Africa and Europe, or attended with us in spirit by wishing us well from wherever you were, I SINCERELY APPRECIATE YOU MORE THAN WORDS, THANK YOU!!!

Wishing you only the Best and Success in all of your endeavors.

Memorial services are finalized for this SATURDAY, 11/19/22 at 2:30 pm in Historic West Las Vegas at the West Las Vegas Library Theatre/Performing Arts Center, 951 West Lake Mead Boulevard, Las Vegas, NV 89106. Wearing white is not required, please feel free to wear whatever you feel is appropriate. Catering and live drums will be provided, as well as a link to a livestream for guests that are unable to attend in person. The original smaller venue couldn't accommodate people that want to participate, and we wanted to provide enough space without conflicting with worship services Sunday, so we upgraded to the best venue possible. Thank you for your continued support!***

***Quick update*** I (Solex) was unaware of how complicated the process is to place a loved one peacefully to rest, and although I initially hoped for 11/5/22, a date that resonated with him, I accept that it will take longer to do things the best that can be done, so please have patience and continue support and spreading the word; all prayers are being received and eternally appreciated***

My baby Brother Shakka Kanu Eke (34 years old) is also with my Ancestors now, he was killed in a senseless altercation last week (Sh8ks, Seven, and known by many other names by anyone that loved him), and I need to help him transition the right way and honor the Light he was while he lived and loved us. After the tragedy just two years ago that our family still hasn't recovered from (the murder of my Brother Obiora in China at 37 years old), we are again deeply devastated and leaning on Faith to find the strength to move forward. Please pray for my parents Kaycee and Denise; despite as broken as my spirit feels, I can't express or comprehend their pain now, and I want to at least provide peace, solace, and closure for them. I hope to celebrate his life. He was my Brother, an Uncle, a Friend, a Teammate, a Classmate, a Sun, and a Loved one by many, and I want to honor him as such, and thus am graciously asking for donations to provide him with a proper homegoing. Thank you in advance for your love and unconditional support.

Please reach out to anyone you know that knew him and spread the word, I'm sorry and I'm grateful for the support.

Love and Light always.
