C.S. Posted August 16 Report Share Posted August 16 There were rumors this week, which were premature, but it looks like Afa is really gone now. From Afa's Facebook page: Afa the Wild Samoan 8m · This afternoon, just a very short time ago, I received the phone call from my mom that my beloved father, the center of my universe, passed away. My heart is so full of his presence and strength. I got to spend the vast majority of my life right there by his side, through the best of times and the hardest of times. Thank you, Dad, for every priceless life lesson you taught me. Thank you for being someone who cared, always. I've been preparing to say goodbye to my Dad since January, when he had those two heart attacks. I was prepared to say goodbye to him in March when he fell and broke his back in two places and had to have major surgery. I was prepared to say goodbye to my Dad when he had his heart valve replacement surgery. I was prepared to say goodbye to him when he was having the second back surgery. I was prepared to say goodbye to my Dad when we had to tell him the news of Uncle Sika's passing. For the last month, I've been preparing to say goodbye to my Dad, as his health declined, as he was put on hospice care, as he grew weaker and more fragile. I've been preparing to say goodbye to my Dad. Now I realize I'll never have to say goodbye, because a very strong part of him will always be part of me. I love you, Dad. This is not goodbye, because I'll never lose you. This is just the end of your lifetime on Earth. I will always love you. You will be remembered, honored, missed, and respected forever. The strongest man I've ever known. The 3-count comes for us all, eventually, but you fought it all the way to the end. You kicked out more times than anyone else ever has. You are forever our undisputed champion. I love you so much. I will never have to know what it is to live without you, because I know you're always with me. ❤️ Thank you all so much for your love, respect, stories, and memories that you've been sharing over the last few days.
