Dear Delae, the last time we spoke was September and you were sending me a video for my mother (Selma Haynes) passing. You were devastated and were in shock that she had passed. Your video for my mom helped me through the time and process. You played the song "I'm coming Home" for her at the funeral and it was a beautiful farewell. I remember when i was a kid in the 70's i would look up at you and my mother talking and i used to think you were so grown, i now realise you were just a kid yourself as you are only 7 years older then me. my mother loved you like a sister and for my whole life i only know the same from you towards her. goodbye my friend promice me you and my mom take care of each other until i see you both again. I love you both to bits. tell her I got Karim and he is safe and living his best life. i just brought him back from Disneyland and he loved it. Everything I do with him or he gets he is always told it is from my mum and he wears a bracelet with her face on it together with her as we both do. goodbye Del bless you and may you rest in peace you are both home now. x Tony

Our deepest condolences goes out to Delali and the Sowu family. What a beautiful spirit Delae was. She's going to be sorely missed and I'm so happy she was a part of my life's journey. She'll forever be in our hearts never to be forgotten. May she rest in eternal peace and her memory always be for a blessing.
